Clouds Should Cry
Under the old waiting shed, one afternoon feeling aloof
I fix my eyes in the tiny crystals falling from the roof
As the rain gently kiss my hand, raindrops roll down my wrist
Flood of memoirs enters the void of my mind, I clench my fist
Closing my eyes, I embrace the rhythm of the rain dripping
Drip, drip, drip, the sound that I am reminded of him - drifting
I open my eyes, to my surprised I see him across the street
Drip, drip, drip, tears of mine are falling along with the rain's beat
The words, "Be happy, this is all for you" I once heard seem sad
Tiny crystals well up between my eyes for him - I once had
I'm not crying 'cause I'm sad, I'm crying because of the wind
which transports my mind - fifteen years ago when someone had sinned
It was the same waiting shed with memoirs where lamp lights falter
He was my first friend; He befriended a murderer's daughter
It was the same rainy afternoon and my last happy one
Crystals dripped from my umbrella as I counted the steps and ran
Ran to the vastness of the street while I shouted his name
My yellow umbrella dropped and my clothes were drenched by the rain
as I sprinted towards the van that was about to depart
I couldn't afford to lose my friend who once lived in my heart
The coldness of the rain wrapped my body as the van stopped
Turbulent as the wind was my mind, in the white van I knocked
Screaming his name at the top of my lungs but he was tied
Adrenaline rushed but little did I know, men pulled me inside
In an old warehouse, both of us were tied to a chair, dizzy
He grabbed a shard of glass and stroke it with the rope furiously
Whispers of drunk men echoed the warehouse as I gripped the shard
Liquid trickled down my hands as an attempt to escape this hard
Voices of those drunk men were louder, radiating towards us
Fear covered me as we held hands back-to-back tightly with trust
Two hands grabbed my feet and dragged me away from him
Since then, I was no longer young and my body was a grim
Two hours in the warehouse, I raised the flag of lost womanhood
Unable to speak, I was like a lifeless body in my hood
I fixed my eyes in the tiny crystals falling from the roof
Under this old warehouse, the sun set still feeling aloof
Cruel men were asleep, door was open agape for escape
Tears have dried up as my mind digested the thought of rape
My heart couldn't express of me being damsel in distress
Yet my prince charming didn't came to rescue the oppress
My gaze still glued to the exit door, my eyes wide open
As I watched him escape without me and trust was broken
My throat cracked, trying to call out his name in a weak voice
In my attempt to save him from the van, leaving me was his choice
The wind gushed through the exit door that sent shivers to my skin
I was not crying 'cause I was sad, I was crying because of the wind
His figure shrank shorter and shorter as he walked the barren field
and this wind witnessed my emotions of torturous battlefield
My wandering mind went back as he walks towards me
His familiar face reminds me of that fifteen years ago tragedy
Well-built body with a uniform and badge for detectives
Leaving me in that old warehouse, my soul and life feels defective
Tiny crystals from above pours heavily, drenching his clothes
I step out of the waiting shed and run as the wind blows
Just like how I ran fifteen years ago just to save him
Even though my life is at brim and I don't know how to begin
A hand grabs my wrist and we stare blankly at each other
This is the touch that I long for - a touch of a lover
Do the skies know how I feel? Raining every time I quit?
Tears of mine are falling in that bitter moment, drip, drip, drip
A paper is handed to me - paper I never wish to see
Tinted in black ink are investigations for my case to cease
Handing the paper back, I walk away from him who betrayed
Destiny really did set us apart, even fate had played
Fifteen years, I was declared dead to him and my family
There was no justice and I lived in other's identity
He is that cold wind that froze my heart and made me vain
While I am the sprout that never blooms, always wet from rain
Why is it only me who's hurting? Making me not love again
I let the rain wash away my yesterday's nightmare and friend
"You are crying because of the wind," He sadly mutters twice
I guess some clouds should weep from the skies to hide my silent cries
