Always The Rain

 

Always The Rain

I was the fire

He was the rain

I was the pleasure

He was the pain

I was the joy

He was the woe

I was the yes

He was the no

I was the sweet

He was the tart

I was the whole

He tore apart

I was the sun

He was the moon

I was the bright

He was the gloom

I was the dance

He was the dirge

I was the giver

(He didn't splurge)

I was the teacher

Life did employ

He was the child

I was the toy

I was the hopeful

He, hope disdained

I opened doors

He slammed again

I gave him love

He took and ran

Enticed me back

Hurt me again

I was the passion

Blazing upward like flame

I was always the fire

But he was ever the rain.
