My Love... For You Poem by Marcus McKinley

Sprinkle
Sprinkle
Thunder storm

Unknowingly striking a cord
In an apathetic deluge
Cleansing my hopes when life eludes
Pure is my love…

Behind these drops I hide my pain
The acid rain etches reflections of you
As permanent as my love…

In your absence, I am not sane
Crying, each tear a path to you
Corrosive, infectious, endlessly dying
As interminable as my love…

Falling to ground
Loves reflecting pool
Deep breath…, lonely death…
inevitable was my love…
