As I look out the picture window
it's you that I see
with all the anger and hurt
that you keep from me.
The rain is pouring down
at a steady pace
beating against
your handsome face.
As you look up to the sky
asking yourself "is there anything there?"
I stare out wondering what your thinking
and wishing that you would share.
The street beams down on you
as you reach up to the sky.
Then I hear you ask "can you tell me why?"
you fall down to your knees
and whipe your eye.
Was that a raindrop
or do you actually cry?
I open the door
and walk out to you.
As I carry a blanket
thick and blue.
I wrap the blanket
around your body
and ask you in a quiet voice
"will you please come inside baby?"
You take the blanket off and give it back to me
then look into my eyes
and say "just let me be"
So i slowly walk inside
tears coming down as i stare at you
wishing there was something
anything, that I could do.

Angie,

This is beautiful and a little sad. Nicely written. How 'bout "Tears of Rain" ?

How terribly moving and sad. How about No Comfort Blanket?

 May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out.

This is a beautiful, moving poem. You could call it "River of Tears". Nah, never mind...I am no good at titles. I love this poem though!

Love and hugs,
Lizzie

This is a sad poem, and you expressed that very well, sometimes we all feel helpless in one way or another. My choices for titles here would be: "Can You Tell Me Why?" or "Your Handsome face"

Hmmmmm no good at doing the title thing but very good poem filled with emotions   Great job!!

 Mystical being
which makes ink flow
Surround me in
your incandescent glow
Fill my brain with
thoughts and rhyme
As I try to capture
but a moment in time
