  1. I have given up trying
  2. to recognize you in the surging wave of
  3. the next moment.
  4. —Rilke
  5. Perhaps the rain
  6. drumming
  7. at the window
  8. could be more gentle;
  9. Perhaps the mist
  10. rising off the lake
  11. could be more clear...
  12. Or the trees
  13. rustling
  14. like your footsteps
  15. Make me think
  16. somehow
  17. you are here.
  18. I hate these rainy nights
  19. without you
  20. the flare of lights in windows
  21. gives false hope
  22. I picture you
  23. standing in the doorway
  24. But your raincoat hangs
  25. beside the door.
