There's a kind of rain that is weightless, too weightless even to fall.
Don't be fooled. It'll soak you through nonetheless.
It will drift into the minuscule spaces between every fiber on your body. It will soak into every cell of your skin and eyes and heart. It will permeate you and become you and you'll never get dry and you'll never warm up.
Some tears are weightless, too weightless even to fall.
But they'll saturate you and weigh you down, heart, mind, body, spirit. You'll be sodden and solid with them, unable to move or speak. They'll choke you and press you into the dark, and you may never come out.
Sherlock is gone, John. Let the tears fall. Say the words. They'll kill you if you don't.
Thanks for reblogging! More John's-eye-view in a few.
