Ever felt that wave of panic
when your mind overwhelms
an ache in your heart,
that rational pounding
of logic
of disconnect
that moment when the rain
no longer hits the pavement,
just evaporates right before landing,
like some unreal happening
we could never imagine,
except in a dream.
Ever wake up one day and realize
life is no longer a dream.
