Rain damage

Rain damage

A Poem by Shards

Hands take freely,
no qualms.
Heart brim over,
unabashed.
Your eyes have closed
you've seen enough.

Belly full of cake

you seem content,
warm as blood and 

snug in your new sugar coat.

And now, 

with your intentions 

demanding our full attention,
it has become obvious, 

that these matches made in heaven
will burn this place to the ground.

Stand in line and waste some time.
Take a breath and breathe a sigh.
Make a wish, believe this lie
die with dignity and dry eyes.
