Your Smile

It tears at my skin
the rain
so violent
I feel sharp pain

this is what I get
for hurting you
now I’m getting
hurt too

now like needles
it strikes
I’m numb
one of my dislikes

I hate the rain
only today
it turned on me
and tried to wash me away

Then you smile
at me so
one saying
“I lied, don’t go”

Suddenly your smile
lights up the sky
a rainbow appears
and reflects in your eyes
