Rainy Days

Drip.

Rain. Never did like the cold. Miserable weather, too unpredictable.

First time I ever hit back, it was raining. Felt good then. 

I didn’t stop. Couldn’t.

Punch. Kick. Punch again.

A girl found me there, unconscious. Gentle touch. She said things would be ok.

A hard judicial stare. Behind cold iron tomorrow.

Drip. Drip.
