Raindrops

The raindrops fall outside
As I gaze out, waiting to hear.
Hear a word, get a sign..
A sign from the one I love..

Each drop is like a tear
As though the heavens weep for me..
Giving me a sense of hope
And a sense of fear..

I know not why but I scream..
I scream from within, scream within..
Reaching my hands out, feeling the drops..
The cool liquid sends a shiver..

The shiver runs through my body..
Mingling with the shiver from deep within
As I wait; which seems to be in vain..
I still hope, for a sign..

A pure heart loves me..
I know this, I know more..
I know a heart yearns for me..
Like the parched soil yearning for a drop..

Great ambiguity there is,
In these raindrops, for
They give me hope and despair..
The rumbling thunder giving me fear..

The hundred thousand drops that fall,
Seem to echo with my prayers..
I just hope for a sign.
The sign that confirms love.

I walk out to the door,
In despair. In hopelessness.
A tear rolls down my cheek.
The rain making it invisible..

And then a miracle happens..
A drop falls on me as me and
I get a sign, a message from
The one whose heart truly loves me..

I thank these drops with all my heart
I thank with all my soul..
They gave me the one I love..
They brought us closer..
