The rain and you

Whenever I hear rain falling outside my window, I remember you. I have no explanation to that. What do you and rain have in common? Why is the sound of rain linked to you?

Before I knew you, the sound of rain made me feel anxious yet soothed. Rain had this incomplete shape inside me. I couldn't imagine rain inside my head. It was incomplete. After you entered my life, rain reminds me of you. Rain took your shape. When I hear rain now, your picture comes to my head.

Maybe because, it is sometimes unexpected as you, or cruel when angry just like you too. Maybe because you make me anxious because I can't see my future with me yet soothe me into the calmness of the present. With you, NOW is the only thing I have.

Rain is a gift from heaven to all living organisms. However, there are days when rain becomes a curse, overflowing rivers and dissolving even rocks. So are you to me. You can be the blessing of my life and the next day you can break me into pieces and drown me in my own waters.
