This rippling shadow of blue,
Seeped through the crumbled edifice
Bleeding, bleeding towards its heart
Watching, watching its soul being pulled apart
Apart with gentleness, apart with care
It seeped, it seeked. Waiting.
Waiting for the sky to come home
Hungering for another drop, another drop till it ceased
Transcending beyond horizons, horizons never reached
Till the vociferous thunder struck. Blighting
Lighting the world of its soul, its soul that was lost
Hoping, hoping for the moment to last
Streaking, streaking past the lives of grey
Wanting to remain, remain forever in the blue
And then, it rained, rained like never before.
