colossal things crumble
when rain falls heavy
to muddy the streets
and wash the children
hiding draught and darkness
under watery wings.
to fill the cracks that groan inside
drown the weeds that grow beside
the rain barrel-spilling
and the rivers running fast.
open wide your clever eyes
see me standing close by
on soaked soil drinking deep.
my arms are breaking
bright like glass
my mind is faking in this mess
let's walk in the stormy downpour
the cloudy kingdom mourns the downfall
each raindrop an ocean, each minute a mile.
wander to sunset where I'll find
your smile.
