Seven Years

Rain Rain Come again.
Today you made me drink you.
After seven years. After nine lives.

Rain Rain Wash again
Today you were a quick shower
After so much mud and grime. After so much power.

The Bloody Universe has brought aqua
Of myriad colours, some dark some light.
Two fold healing that lurks inside the stony walls.
Of broken souls, of broken hearts and minds

There is no beginning and there is no end
When two hands touch one soul gets joined
A purpose, a gift, a blessing or a curse
Maybe it doesn't matter if even one thirst gets quenched.

"Eve, don't do it again."
"Eve, don't do it again."

"It's not the same this time."
"I know. But you are the same."

"Let me live. Again."
"Graze for awhile. I will let you graze slowly because I am tired too. Then sleep forever my child."
