The Rolling Stones said "She's a rainbow"
The Arctic Monkeys said "Crying Lightning"
I personally don't think she's either.
To me, she's a raincloud most of the time
all beautiful and smelling like petrichor,
all gray and complicated
and making things better only when she wants
because she can.
So perhaps she is the rainbow and the lighting
and the cloud and everything in between
but I am just tired of getting wet
and I don't know how to bring the sunshine
and get her to enjoy a sunny day
because I love swimming pools
and she has a hot bikini body
but still prefers the raincloud and she hates the beach
and I would like to tell her "Brace yourself
because life is going to hit you hard" -yes, even harder-
and I am going to be there for you
but I don't know if you'll want me
because I was so stupid some time ago
because I didn't do things your way
because I respond to your apathy in a way that you find abusive
and I don´t want to abuse you but I just can't wait
forever for you to do your chores while you're out
with your friends and you think everything else is more important
and you're taking me for granted but then I get mad
and can't help but become a bitch
and then you get mad because I am a bitch -which I know I am and I am sorry-
but I wasn't like that when I told you first and you're just testing my limits.
She's a raincloud and I can't be the eternal umbrella.
And I know she'll say she doesn't need an umbrella but at the end of the day
this is her home. For now.
Maybe later, when she can afford her own, she'll go away.
And that is not because I want her to go, but it is her who says she can not stand me.
I don't know. I just ask her to make lunch and wash the dishes once a week.
And to smile once in a while.
I don't know.
How does one love a raincloud?
