Raindrops

Raindrop

If words could fall like raindrops
From these lips of mine
And if I had a thousand years
I'd still run out of time
To express my love for you
I cannot even start
All the words now fail me
You have to read my heart.
If I could have just one wish,
I would be a drop of rain,
I’d then roll close to your ear,
And whisper to you, my pain,
But I doubt I have a wish,
Nor do I know the art,
So the whispers are now silent,
You have to read my heart.
Don't raindrops have their identity?
Do they always have to be Oceans?
Doesn’t silence have its meaning?
Do words always back emotions?
I fail to answer any of these,
These questions are my part,
Yet the answer is there with me,
You have to read my heart.
