Short Story Slam Week 16: I Say It, I Was There!

I say it, I was there,

Regardless what spring rain has taken,

I was there, with you,

We have walked in the pouring rain,

Watching the raindrops’ shatter

On the umbrella we’re holding,

Tears fall

As a mother duck gathers her ducklings to a shelter

to escape the flood downpour,

I say it, I was there,

To feel your pain,

I say it, I was there,

To get rid of emotional stain,

Your hands warm

like sunshine on my face,

Your breath intense

like ocean waves,

I say it, I was there,

Love flows between two of us

like fresh air in open space,

Your fingers intertwine mine,

With you beside me, I feel divine.

Time often betrays us,

So much has slipped through our fragile hands,

Can’t let go,

Innocence lost,

But not our words,

You have my word,

I say it, I was there.
