you promised
you swore.
'when it rains'
you whispered in my ear,
tickling my neck,
before leaving.
'when it rains I'll return'.
but it's not raining.
the sky is that blue,
that blue
echoing your eyes,
reminding me of your
absence.
It's not raining,
and you'll never return.
and
because the sky is blue,
it makes me cry.
