Sunrise
3:28am
For every drop of rain that hits the earth
3:56
I hear that soulful voice echoing through my mind
4:02
It’s crashing along the sea
4:21
It’s from the calm whispers of the wind
4:42
The calming of every nerve and the air you give me to my lungs
5:07
You’re trying to tear the skin off your bones
5:23
With my tears burning holes in your cheeks
Praying that I won’t wake up
5:42
Your eyes were a beautiful cloud but all I wanted was rain
5:59
You opened your heart to someone who has theirs locked away
6:18
Your cigarettes stained my lungs and I stained your heart
6:39
I was tired of the rain falling softly to get my feet wet and letting you drown instead
6:53
Our body is full of organs but I made you feel so empty
7:13
At least we are under the same sky
7:34
Should I walk away or try harder?
7:45
You had a paper heart and I was playing with matches
7:49 I thought people don’t waste their time on things that can’t be changed
7:51
As we get older
We get colder
7:53
Heaven is a place on earth with you
7:55
I woke up
8:00am
Thank you, mom

I was inspired by the poem "Cinderella" by Enid Dame since in my school we have a poetry in performance module and our teacher gave us this as a prompt for us :)
