Perfect Rainy Afternoon

Perfect rainy afternoon,
Lainy with my moon,

“stop she said,
“I’m much too tender,
“please.”

Starlings singing,
Drops on the pane push ringing.

Left her before she left today,
Giving my heart’s wrapping away,
Filtered cold light on a cloudy day,
Dreaming awake with you,
Watching your closed eyes move.

“It’s not my blue,
“It’s just sweet time with you.”

Can’t remember a day it rained like this,
My so something lainy with a twist,
Smiling and sore and pissed,
Sweet and subtle and sullen,
Conjunction here and there,
Goldie and her bear.

Weekends away,
Hours breaking and fray.

“I’d love to hear you play guitar.

“It’s going to sound like shit.

“I don’t care.”
