Rainlight

the light on the pavement
the rain still falls
a glimmer of hope and nothingness
meet in the dark alley

where are you going? dark says to light
winter is still here and i must still fade
it's still my job to tease
but never be caught

i danced today, i don't know why
the music was so quiet
facing the sun like a crocus
and yet like the pound of the downpour

radiance and rainlight
sit together on my porch
waiting
soon.
