I stare longingly at the rain It pours with too much intensity today It's my first love, the rain My heart pounds faster with each passing second The little girl inside me should be begging me to indulge To jump into the rain and enjoy nature's first love To feel my hair sticking onto my head and clothes onto my skin To open my mouth and drink directly from God's personal pond But today my hear craves for another form of love, the tangible kind My heart is hungry for passion and not even the ranging storm outside can calm tje one inside me. I grip the railing tighter and my knuckles hurt For a second there I focus on my right hand to distract myself from reality The cold in the air and on the metal railings have turned it to a pale pink It's numb now and I wish that was my heart A lovely couple under a blue umbrella pass at a distant and a smile creeps to my mouth I'm distracted by three friends laughing through the rain Laughter, the one thing I'm so good at yet so fake at My best friend sits behind me next to her boyfriend and he whispers, 'she really loves the rain.' I can't tell if it's a question or a statement but it doesn't matter 'cause it snaps me back to reality Today I watched the rain and what it brought and I realised I'm love hungry. #LoveHungry #TheRain

I stare longingly at the rain It pours with too mu
