This piece of poetry was written by Korben after a recent period of sombre weather. It was an attempt to push themselves out of their comfort zone to get more used to poetry as opposed to their more common writing method of prose. The piece was intended to capture the feeling of losing a significant other in whatever form that takes, either through death, a breakup, or simply having to endure a long distance relationship: as such this poem should be taken with a trigger warning for anyone who may have lost a partner one way or another and may still be affected.

Droplets,
Watch as they drip.
Watch as they race down the window,
As fast as my heart paces.

My soul is soothed,
As I turn to you.
A warmth rushes over me
as I curl into your arms:
I am home.

As the droplets continue to roll,
I whisper: "I love you."
And I am met with the calming
comforting echo of your reply...

Droplets,
Watch as they drip.
Watch as they race down my face,
As fast as my heart paces.

My soul is pained,
As I search for you now.
The cold settles over me
as I curl into the duvet we shared:
I am homesick.

As the droplets continue to roll,
I whisper: "I love you."
And I am met with silence.
