the wet

nowadays the rain falls so silently in the night that i don't even know it happened. sometimes i feel an odd buzz or a cold draft and i look out the window but everything seems fine. if it ain't raining then what was that i felt?

a while ago i looked out the window and i couldn't decide if it had rained. i spent a good minute staring at the dark roads and rooftops. did it look wet? i stuck my arm out the window, nothing.

now it's definitely raining though, lovely lovely rain. i just don't like it when it comes by so silently that i don't even realise it's there. i need to know before i can enjoy it.
