A steady fall of rain on glass
Me counting how many droplets join together
Before mass and gravity cause a down cascade
And I conclude that this is how rivers are born

The squeaking wipers sync together
Making quick work in erasing my theory
Bringing me back to a reality I want no part of
As a fresh crop of drops dot the windshield
And I begin counting again

It has been 9 long minutes now
With not a word spoken or looks shared
No reasoning or explanations
To ease the tension of folded arms

I rest my forehead against my side window
A blue streak lights up the sky
And then a rumble so close shakes my car
“I think I should go now.”
You say it in whisper that’s barely heard
Your words paralyze my body stiff
And before I can move again
The door has already been opened
And I see you running up steps
My letterman’s jacket left draped across an empty seat
