“Rain” by Micheyla Ishimine

“Rain” by Micheyla Ishimine
April 30, 2020 Nā Leo Literary Review

I am rain. 

Unpredictable 

and indestructible. 

Like you, rain. 

I am rough, 

when needed be. 

When the light 

Shines through, 

I refrain, 

Like you, rain. 

When clouds are grey, 

I run. 

My heart races. 

I unravel, 

Like you, rain. 

I rush 

Onto the rubbles 

Beneath us. 

I am drenched, 

but drained. 

Like you, rain.
