The First Night

The rain falls and I listen
remembering fingers running through my hair
and a strong palm cupped over my ear
to silence my demons for the night.
I remember warm arms around me
and a kiss on my cheek.
The night even the devil felt love,
even I did.
It was never said
but it was there
hidden under everything.
Now the rain falls and unearths it.
Putting out the fire.
And I remember everything,
everything and nothng.
