THE POET STARES AT A DERELICT ON THE STREET

If I lived with you
In the house of rain,
Would He come for me
When He comes again?

Would He buy me shoes
And show me where
To sleep? And spread
His jacket there?

If lived with you,
Then I could see,
But now He will not
Come for me.

If I lived with you
In the house of rain,
Would He come for me
When He comes again?
