Rain
Sunday, December 9th, 2007Here’s a poem that I wrote for english class:
Rain
The rain is falling forevermore down,
Forevermore falling, falling onto the ground,
These tears from the heavens, they all fall around,
They fall all around without making a sound.
The rain makes me sad, but not for it’s wet,
Not for the coolness, as the sun starts to set,
No, I become sad when the clouds are upset,
Because of what happened, that I’ll never forget.
Do you know why rain falls, why rain falls for me?
Because a day long ago, we met at the sea,
So happy we were, that boy and me,
We would talk of our sorrows till they left us to be.
But the sorrows came back as the boy went away,
Death took his soul and flew off in the day,
For a god was I then, and forever I stay,
My curse is to live and not go away.
So I stay here on earth with the rain’s silent sound,
The clouds and I cry with our tears falling down,
They fall to the floor and sink into the ground,
I envy the earth as it painlessly drowns.
