“Trying to light a match in the rain”
You do not have to use this phrase but as long as it’s the same concept. Wrote whatever, as long as it’s poetry or prose. ;)

Loving you,

was like trying,

and trying,

and trying,

to light a match,

in a goddamn rainstorm.

Circumstances wouldn't allow it,

because

you pushed me away.

And slowly,

I started to fade away.

The potential of our love,

the passion,

the fire,

dissipated.

Vapourised,

vanished,

for good.

My attempts,

were futile.
