Shadowed

I saw you standing there, that day
The rain, it never stopped
The silky sky so black and gray
Brought to me your thoughts.

I saw myself inside you, and you inside of me.
I saw your hopes, the dreams you had
 Visions you did keep.

I looked outside the window, the rain
Did never end
The hours past
You stood there still
And still your thoughts I read.

Across those thoughts of sweetness,
So pure, so divine,
Engrossed in those of hatred
Kindred of their kind

The rain did stop
 The doorbell rang,
And you were at my door.
You whispered thoughts into my ear.
The ones I had explored

Hatred seeped from crevice fair 
In rags of finest lin 
And shackled long my broken heart,
That reeked with blood within.
