Wondering Rain
Submitted by Logan_B on Fri, 12/05/2008 - 10:29amIt’s freezing cold.
I even have goose bumps.
My hands are frozen and my stomach is growling.
Heavy is the rain on my shoulders; Paling my face and limbs.
I wish I could find my phone. God, I’d lose my head if it wasn’t attached.
I think it’s getting colder. Maybe I’m just getting more numb.
Everything seems so pallid. As if all the joy was gone.
The longing is still there.
Longing for joy,
time,
friends,
life,
anything.
My throat is struck with the longing of food.
My body longing for warmth.
My heart for comfort. . .
Just someone to be here.
Just anyone to be; to share with me the last moments of what would be our time.
My time.
The time spent on this most beautiful and gracious planet.
The world to which I found is not the one that found me.
No.
I left that world behind long ago.
Oh, how the rain makes me wonder.
Wonder and wander.
I think I’ll go back.
Back to the world and people I left behind. . .
