It’s just that simple.
You get up.
You go stand at the window.
You watch the rain
–Just like those other people
in that building
across the way–
And you forget everything else.
Let it all go.
Let the rain do its job.
–dissolve–
Then you breathe
and think about the message you’d send
to your dead father.
I’m sorry Dad.
I didn’t realize.
