Will I write?

Will I write again?

I wonder

as I watch the rain

dance against the window pane

I wonder

on this rainy afternoon

where has the feeling gone

I don’t know

those words elude me now

as the gray afternoon drones on

I try to capture it in a song

but the words fall flat

and sit against the wall

with my yoga mat

and the rain

continues to fall
