Because embraces are more welcomed on rainy days

I never pictured this

To be this close to you,

this much closer to you,

We were walking to an abyss

and thought nothing would change

Well, everything did, and more will follow

I know I can't make a bid, but for you, I'll swallow

my words, my pride, my ego, my norms, but gladly of course

As even before this, you've been by my side in my better or worse

I thank everything that pushed me to wrap my arms around you that night

Was it the juice, the silence of friends, or all your cunning and finespun ways?

Or maybe it was simply because embraces are more welcomed on cold rainy days
