A Pluviophile
Night rain, my bed , and I— my forever comfort zone.
It’s raining outside.
The sound of rain is just like soft music that gives me calmness.
My nose can clearly smell the aroma of the earth.
A typical aroma of rain; It’s unique and relaxing.
I fancy the smell of rain.
If there’s someone out there selling a perfume with the smell of rain,
I’ll definitely buy them and clean one shelf at a store.

Wait, I’m supposed to be a bit gloomy and sensitive here.
Let’s get back to the mood.
***
This evening just feels the same as any other evening.
Nothing interesting happened.
There’s only me working, having a so-so day, and heading back home;
Without even knowing that I’m lying around in the best place on earth (again).
Well, you can guess.
Yeah, exactly! It’s my lovely bed.
***
I’m grateful though, although for now, I don’t have someone to hug me at night;
I have my warm blanket and bolsters to welcome me.
They’re so loyal and barely protest to me any action I give them.
They’re also good listeners.
Every time I say something, they listen so well and agree to all of the opinions or ideas I throw.
Even if my ideas don’t make sense lol.
***
Night rain while I lay on my bed is indeed a perfect combo.
It’s super comfy;
It felt exactly the same when my mom hugged me when I was five.
The kind of feeling that I feel safe and warm.
Knowing that everything will be okay.
***
It’s cool outside, yet warm inside.
This combination represents me in a nutshell perfectly.
There’s a coolness in me, in the sense that whatever happens, happens;
Yet half of me possesses a warmth, in the sense that I am able to fancy myself and spread affection to others.
***
I need thousands of nights and rain until reaching this point.
But now, I’ve arrived at the peak of my goal of self-discovery.
I love myself and I can enjoy spending time with myself.
After all, at the end of the day;
I only have myself, so I learn to enjoy the solitude;
Because I can find peace and happiness in it.
Oh, there’s another thing I want to add.
I’m a pluviophile who enjoys the solitude.
