The rain and you.

I tried writing a poem about rain.

As usual, I didn't finish. It's like, there were the feelings but words were lost. It was weird coz I really wanted to write it. And still there it went with my collection of many others called drafts.
Sometimes I'm more of a starter. Less of a finisher. Not that I feel lazy but because I linger through it for too long. 
I wanted to write a poem about rain because it was raining. And then what? How dense.Why rain? And why talk about it right now? I felt that if I wouldn't finish it, this day wouldn't be complete. Not for seizure but for escape. And it didn't. So I decided to just talk about it to compensate for the lost words. But still, why is that so important? And now,  that the rain's gone. 
Then questions flashed. Is it the rain?  Is it yesterday? Is it those words? Is it me?

It is you. 

How I long for you. The you who's now part of things that vacate and linger on my world. Like the rain.
How I miss you. Can the rain be blamed for intensifying the yearning? Maybe not. But you see, the rain and me, we got issues.

As for the poem, it's not staying hidden. It'll be continued the time the two factors that cause the urge, meet again. Longing and rain. And you see, longing is a constant part.

I tried writing a poem about you.

I have you

Sometimes
All the world can seem so friendless
And the road ahead so endless
And the dream so far away.
Sometimes
When I'm almost to surrender
Then I stop and I remember. . .

I have you to save my day.

That Loving Task

 -The vindication to the inquisition. :p


How do I even start to explain just what's happening
Lately there were these scenes I keep replaying
Why all of a sudden they have infested my mind
How I tried,but just can't seem to leave them behind

 Words of beauty flooded my head
Pondering for the right words to be said
Overwhelming affection that fills the heart
Wondering,from it,could I ever part?

But then came a familiar battle with time
Afraid the sweet soul wasn't really mine
Thinking I could just eventually lose it
Afraid I just had to let go of it

Truth is I wanted neither go or stay
Settled for the safest risk I could play
Thought it'd fall where it is rightfully be
Convincing myself it's not here with me

But the heart was wanting
The heart was calling for
Not sure it'd be the same again
Like what it was before

I was on the part of conceding
But something bizarre was happening
Whenever you enter my thoughts
I couldn't stop smiling

So came with understanding is hoping
In Providence's pow'r I kept relying
That if by will He'd open the door
I'd give what I could give and more

And now,I've come to believe in you
I'll take your heart,please take mine too
As for the sweetest question asked
My king,yes I do,I accept that loving task.
