Dancing in the rain

by lost   May 17, 2007


You always said you wanted to dance in the rain
So one sunny day with not a cloud in sight
I brought you outside and plugged the stereo up
I put your favorite song on grabbed your hand
And asked for a dance
You were confused and asked me what I was doing
I reminded you of what you'd told me
But its not raining you replied
I told you it would be soon enough
You didn't understand so I explained what I was thinking
You listened close and as you started to cry
A cloud appeared overhead
Blocking out the sun and casting a shadow down on us.
That day was four years ago
I haven't heard from you since
That cloud still hangs over me
Reminding me of the mistake I had made
I left you behind with tears running down your face
I had made your dream come true
But leaving you was where I went wrong
I know I hurt you worse than anyone before
But it was for the best, for you and for me.
