redeem this poem

waiting in the rain
for redemption
still, the sky will not empty itself
and we go on
redemption tarries,
looks out the window,
and decides to stay home.

today it rains, same as yesterday,
only lonelier.

Be drawn into someone else’s arms
Dive further into the muck
in this rainy season

Hope for landslides to cover scars of roads past,
lovers’ leaps -- all we've got.
