Tears of Good Bye- I dance now in the rain
                                        

                         Each tiny rain drop that falls from sky
                         separated, are they each
                         Each fall, for pain, for love now lost
                         I cry out NOT FAIR!!, I question why?

                         Just as the rain pours, I release, my tears of love
                         that fall from thine eyes
                         I watch as each one hits, splashing upon the ground
                         dissipating are they, as the rain falls down from
                         above

                         Each droplet of rain , collects than into a pool
                         mixing with those of my tears
                         the tears I cry for that of another
                         cascading down from me,
                         the fool

                         I stand now in the rain, arms outstretched to the
                         sky
                         Releasing my self from loves bitter pain I no longer
                         denigh

                         The thunder it CRASHES as my storm brews within
                         LIGHTING then strikes piercing my heart
                         As my anger gives way to my forgiveness of him

                         Exhausted, I fall , then to the ground
                         Letting go of the pain
                         Watching my tears being carried away by the rain
                         They flow to a puddle , my puddle of shame

                         The storm ... at last .. departs from the sky
                         I am now void, of all tears
                         I know longer have the need
                         The need to know why

                         I rise up from my pain to begin my life once again
                         Rain it must fall, just as tears must be shed
                         I invite it, the chance , I now dance, not cry in the
                         rain

                         I will do so forever, for I now know the truth in my
                         heart
                         Together yet separate , for they each play a part
                         To value my tears.....tears cried in the rain
                         For both they are needed, required, to release my
                         puddle of shame


4 all those whom have learned as I have 2 dance in the rain

Raven,

I grieve for you. This is an experience I bet every human being shares with you.  I liked the flow of the poem (no pun intended). I pitty the poor man who walked away from your poets heart.

Recheck your work....there seem to be a few typos.

Raven I know how you feel here *hugs* This was very sad and so very good. I have not learnt to dance in the rain yet but am planning on it.

Raven~
You've danced the dance of broken hearts
cast in puddles so deep.
Time to kick off your shoes and do some
puddle-jumping.
May you dance with abandon in the delight of many refreshing rains.
*HUGS* my friend.
