I wake up to a rain filled sky

To see drops of rain fall like tears

of the lovers who's hearts had been broken.

Thunder crashing down as if it were

a toddler throwing a tantrum.

 

I roll over where you no longer lay

to find myself alone and in pain.

Thoughts of you fill my head

why did you have to leave me 

the way you did.

 

I can no longer hear your footsteps

nor your voice echoing in my head.

Once I thought I heard you laugh

but instead it was only my imagination

wishing you were here.

 

The songs of the sparrow carry a sad song

through the wicked breeze of the storm.

I heard it once before,

when we were young and in love.

It's the song of two hearts becoming one.

 

Now those days have become history

and you and I were given a second chance.

A new beginning we must try.

The chance we took became our last

for you could wait no longer.

 

I wake up to a rain filled sky

to see drops of rain shatter to the ground

like the dreams we once had.

Someday, someday that will be us again

giving hope and faith a second chance.

 

Like the rain pouring down outside

we never know when it will stop or start.

The love we have for one another

will be our constant guide

back to each others hearts.

A great reverie poetically put.
One suggestion, you seem to repeat the word 'rain'..if not intentional, i would recommend using an alternate word OR a meteophor for rain instead.

good job otherwise.

A sweet and unique representation of the heart's way back home. Sad but cozy at the same time and filled with determination, reflection, and hope. Nice.
