Raindrops’ Sonata

Raindrops’ Sonata

By Steve Robison and Daniela Voicu

 

 

Part 1: Prelude

 

 

Moon’s light bends in the translucence of raindrops

Lovers drenched in the perfection of the moment

Still stained in the memories 

Electric passion of the last storms  

 

Breaking new light of the full moon 

Remnants of sunset pink hues fading

Clothed and embraced in a song of rain

Lasting scream of two beating hearts 

 

Their answer to resplendent happiness

Pleasant sound, subtle, slight

The rain’s drops falling on their faces

Looking upward at the brightening moon

 

Quiet, yet aware, a gentle reminder

Of the love they now and have forever

Shared, in the droplets 

Washing away the final falling tear

 

Remembering the furious passions 

Of yesterday’s disasters

Moon and rain witness the mix 

Misunderstandings of life below

Falling, showering, covering, knowing

 

The lovers have been together since 

Time began

Their love placed the moon in the sky

Set adrift, encircling forever

Shining, the last star 

 

Love’s moonlight sonata 

Shining forever on the dark romance

Soft breeze – ever-present, ever-blowing, ever-alive

 

 

 

Part 2: Gift 

 

 

I want to make you a gift 

Sweet and a little strange 

It’s a gift, the one you never accept from me…

 

Your smile I will give to the moon

Because 

Only in the night can I think on you

And because your smile is more important than what people say…

All words…

 

It’s a gift 

 

What I tell you now

 

This… it never ends 

 

It is forever, we are forever

 

Before knowing you, love, 

 

My life was the same as most lives…

But the love is bigger than our Universe now 

I will give to the rain and the moon your smile 

 

 

 

Part 3: Acceptance

 

 

Your gift I accept

With contriteness of heart

It flows with the truth

An offering in love

 

Great tree of great life

Stands today and tomorrow

Soft breeze of love’s moment

Gently kisses each leaf

 

I offer my smile

To you and the moon

As happiness blooms

When you enter this scene

 

Our Universe grows

As we live this new dream

Cleansed in the rain

Smiling with the moon
