RIC S. BASTASA - RAIN BETWEEN

there is this rain between my thighs
there is this cloud inside my abdomen
it is heavy with something
that accumulates somewhere
and within there is this
tickling and tingling of everything
i feel for you

in your absence
the clouds get so heavy and my abdomen
gives in

the rain falls under my feet
and then i know
it is the ripe time for sleep
