Gone...
One Rainy night
Like a teary-eyed toddler
With muffled whimpering
It poured,
Unending it gushed
'cos 'twas all night
Dark night skies
colluding
or maybe in tandem
With my chaotic reflections
of the incident before
The tremblings of the window panes
mirrored my shaking shoulders
Ice cold hands smacked together
'twas not because of the climes
But 'cos of my heart's constraints
Shivering thunder-like whimpers
Reveling through the dark
Shock I may never overcome
How? I questioned again
Could my father be gone
