Analysis of Let it rain
Sometimes I wish for a rain in droplets
to wordlessly wipe the dust that landed.
Then I meet you in their silent couplets,
you softly glide on the skin I‘ve handed.
Then glitters moist from a bond unbranded
driving the urge to play game after game,
billows from deep down the gut aflame
the courage and force we share without fear.
Then I refresh on this wonderful aim
that reaches me within one single tear.
