Secrets in the Rain

When I couldn’t deny silence – who speaks nothing but the truth –
I would seek refuge in Rain, for she knows how to keep a secret.
Tears that can no longer be contained are hidden in the shower of water.
And no one would know –
About the pain that cripples me –
Only the heaven –
When it pours –
Watching me –
While I cry my secrets in the rain –

Silence

“I’ll be right back,” he said, before he disappeared in the distance.
And once again, I am left all alone, with silence.
Silence.
He is the most honest of my friends.
Sometimes I would drown myself in the noise of the traffic, the sound of music and the hustle and bustle of people around me –
To deafen myself from silence, who speaks to me of nothing but the truth.
The truth that I am vulnerable –
That I am capable of pain –
I have struggled so hard and for far too long to be brave. I have put up a good fight – but despite my efforts – silence has whispered the truth to me –
The truth that I am sad.
