Days in the Sun, Nights in the Rain

By: Anonymous

Too many empty "see you tomorrow"s
I thought I had missed the sunset and sunrise
 Too many unfilled rain checks
 I thought I forgot my umbrella
 Too many empty smiles
 I really thought the mask was real
 Too many nights spent wandering and wondering
 I thought your mind might have run past me for a second

 I turned to look. I realized it wasn't you. You were never there.
 The sun rises.
 I see tomorrow. The rain falls around my umbrella.
