Cats and dogs on my roof -
Like horses galloping their way to battle.
As the fierce downpour excessively drops,
My heart stopped.
And like a movie, scenes flashed through my eyes.
Walking, running under the rain
Playing with an overturned umbrella,
Singing rain songs and laughing all the way.
Kissing in the rain.
Silly.
The rain continues to pour.
The movie in my mind ended.
No one to play with under the heavenly waters -
No one to kiss under the rain.
All I can do now is to kiss the rain -
Kiss the pain.
Kiss the pain of the rain goodbye.

I like the way you started this, without the literal use of “raining like cats and dogs” – it makes the image more poignant, in my opinion. Nice!
Lol – “literal” was the total wrong word for me to use there, as obviously there is no literal use of that phrase … or if there were, we would have a PETA nightmare on our hands. Anyways – verbatim would have been better: I like that you didn’t use the verbatim addage! Haha
Strong imagery Moon. Makes me a bit sad and contemplative.
