Shatters Poem by Windsor Guadalupe Jr

If anything is as tranquil,
As the rain that cascades by will
Then it must be certain,
That one exceeds another in time.

Oh, the life of a rain,
Is as ephemeral as existence
It blooms with life and dies in senescence
And in utmost vulnerability, dead from defenses

The rain shatters,
And breaks in oblivion
Caught in a crippling submission,
Drenched from all the filth

The rain proclaims
And crowns the man as king
Of its own world, with gems on his head
And loses its nobility before a word is said

The rain submerges
The city in deep waters
And cries as profound as trenches
Will not be consumed by flames

I am stuck in prayers
Like I am jaded underneath the rain,
Because there’s something in the rain
That draws me near my pain.
