Rainy Day Memories

By Malice In Wonderland

Faint buzzers sound
Shaking me from distant dreamlands
7 A.M
Mo[u]rning
Pulse of rain,
Invading my senses,
Warm comfort
Of ominous grey,

Memories,
Come in a wash[ing] breeze
But a ghost to this mortal existance
Submerged a prisoner
In twistes sheets
Confines
Shackles of misery one can't seem to break
Leaden
As opposed the simple cotton sheets
That seem to strangle me

I think of that day
We danced in the rain
With such abandon
You sang show tunes
In the outpour[ing]of rain

I wonder
When I died...
