It Rains In My Heart…

"It rains softly on the town." Arthur Rimbaud


It rains in my heart
  As it rains on the town,
     What languor so dark
        That it soaks to my heart?
 

Oh sweet sound of the rain
   On the earth and the roofs!
       For the dull heart again,
         Oh the song of the rain!
 
 

It rains for no reason
  In this heart that lacks heart.
     What? And no treason?
        It’s grief without reason. 
 

By far the worst pain,
  Without hatred, or love,
     Yet no way to explain
       Why my heart feels such pain!
 
 

(Paul Verlaine)
