Shine for me- a poem

Shine for me
It's raining where I am
And normally
Rain is just fine with me
Normally,
I'd rather it rain than shine

But today,
Today the rain feels different
The drops
Feel heavy
As if filled with the weight of
Heartbreak
Or rather
Longing
Yes, that's it
Longing

Is it raining at home?
Because its raining here
Where I am
In this bed
It is raining

Clouds so heavy with
The pressure of that
Longing
That they can't help but cry over this bed

And the wind
The wind is unbearable
This storm
Is so bitter
And so cold
That I'm starting to question
If its really September anymore
Or did Jauary pay me a visit
In this bed?

But no matter the month
Or day
Or year
I can't take this storm anymore
So would you please
Please
Shine for me?
