The Unnecessary Woman

 

You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but you are not the rain

you are not the rain and you never will be

you look at it and you feel the downpour, but you’re not the rain

you’re not the rain, so don’t even think of trying to be

your hand is wet and the water touches your face like a small child

you are not the rain and you never will be

the conversation is always about something else — maybe unrelated, maybe relevant

you are not the rain and you never will be

you’re no one and you’ll never be anyone
