One Year of Rain

I treat your love as an umbrella,
broad and white,
that shields me from the
unforgiving rain

 

When this precipitation stops,
I pack you away,
folding, carelessly,
waiting for another rainy day

Perhaps you would hope
for my hand to grasp you again.
But maybe you have always waited
for a day the rain would start
and never stop,
despite my forecast of sunny skies
