Petrichor

You remember it rained

That day in July

I saw a foreboding

Obsidian sky

Temptation like lighting

Striking the core

Of a heart surrendered

Just days before

It drowned in desire

That fateful day

Only petrichor remained

After ardors decay

This soul laments

Your fleeting goodbye

You remember it rained

That day in July
