release

Here I am
finally
listening
to water
dripping
from the sky
and streaming
off the house
and splattering
the pavement,
plinking in puddles
raining
atop the dense
wet lawn
in the deep dark
of the night
where I am
free
of feelings
like water
in the air
and tiny night lights
drowned
in the sounds
where
I can finally
relax
