Love comes with the rain… and with doubts, prejudices, and resignation. She gets the rain and you only a monument and a grant of silver. Emotions flicker in your head. The light touch of a hand feels like a wasp sting. What they see is a quiet rainy afternoon, but to you it feels like the blood of a beheaded rooster splashing violently onto your body. When the rain goes, the loneliness comes. Feel the rain. Forget about the pain.
