As the Rain Falls
As the rain falls gently,
I feel your touch.
As the rain falls swiftly,
I hear your voice.
As the rain falls calmly,
I see your smile.
The rain falls on the window pain,
I awaken to find you gone.
Were you really here,
or is it just my fantasy?
I long to see beyond pictures,
I long to feel beyond words.
I can hear your voice and your words,
sweet as the falling rain.
I can sense your presence,
your consciousness which follows me.
Your words and calming voice give me hope,
the hope that one day we shall meet.
One day a waterdrop fell from the sky,
then she finally met the ground.
I decend from my place in the sky,
when will I meet you?
As the rain falls,
think of me, and you shall never be lonely.
-Jenni Kirby
