A terse question


Will the tiny rain drop
surrender to its peers,
forcing to take it beneath?
or will it cling 
to the narrow windshield 
daring to be unique?

This question i ask my heart
for the rain of time is
shuddering my drop-like dreams
would they survive?
be a part of unknown half?
or merge with the common stream...
