Icy needles -
they hail down
from pockets in the sky.

I just stand there
amidst the downpour;
let it drench me
let it puncture chills throughout.

I shall cry alongside it,
and no one will notice.
I don't want them to notice
the true pain
that I really feel inside.

It's never happened before.
Never felt my heart held
so tightly (lovingly) together,
while at the same time
feel it shattered,
so broken.

For now I just want to stand here.
To feel this cold consume me,
to soak inside my confused tears
of which only the rain knows.
