holding myself while it rains
& when it rains, it pours
the rain is unforgiving
it will cleanse but you cannot escape its effects
the pain worsens
the rain magnifies it
i hold myself even tighter
who else will?
…
heartache is love with nowhere safe to land
it feels scary here
like a desolate wasteland
i sit with it
trying to not disturb the peace
but i have known no peace in a while it seems
my heart aches & there is nothing to do with the pain
there is no one to take it out on
no one to hold accountable
the one who caused it, i let her off too easy
to preserve my inner sanctity
but now what, beloved?
…
si, yo fui la que te dejé
pero tu nos acabastes
nada en el mundo me duele mas
que ver tu sonrisa solo en mis memorias
quiero olvidar todo de ti
por que no puedo mas vivir así
sigue lloviendo
y el dolor sigue persiguiéndome
no me deja descansar
trato de vivir mi vida
y allí esta tu dolor en mi cuerpo
todavia siento las vibras
me dice mi cuerpo,
“amor, nos duele el corazón…
por favor, escucha
y siéntate aqui con nosotros…
no corres, solo siéntelo todo,
es para que mejores
y vivas de nuevo…
te amo”
…
let the rain wash it all away
the good, the bad, the terribly ugly
the pain & the memories
a complete reset
the sweet recollections hurt me the most
i shall never again remember you
erase it all, please have mercy on me
do you not see my need?
is the rain not powerful enough?
do not say it isn’t so
are you to tell me i must live this way?
oh…
