For a Change: Short Story

Day 533, 15:29 • Published in USA USA

• by Aren Perry

(set at a college dorm hall, day of graduation)

Looking out my acquainted window
before my final glance, I never took the time to just look
youth, slow rain drops seen from the silent room

hear nothing save the pounding of slow rain
warm thoughts are found on a walk, ordered just for two
drips pound the floor bringing memories wet on clothing
together, collecting into a symphony from the past present

I came here obscure, purpose unknown
moments of sacred reminisce are remiss to be ignored,
too hard to be cherised in failing words.
leaving for the last, I splash on the ground joining the symphony past
the rain that never stops
silently guided on fateful wind
life picks up,

I move on
