a taste of yesterdays rain


in a tear you glittered
in vain
craving for attention

in that tear you drowned
without being seen by anyone

you played a beautiful corpse
without being immortalized

you didn’t become anything more
than an eyes dreary spill

in a sun gleam you dried out
leaving a vague contour
of something fled
a casual sensation
of nothing at all
a taste of yesterdays rain
that I hid in my hair
and forgot
without a trace

It's a great thoughtful reflection: I like the epithets "beautiful corpse" and "casual sensation" vis-a-vis the taste of yesterday's rain hiding in my hair. You evince a genuine poetic taste.
