A dark and cold stinging rain
Always used to bring pain
It brings about a deafening silence
That appears just before the violence
Prolonged exposure to this rain may cause loss of life

Then a new rain comes to wash away
All the pain and the sorrow of that day
A soft rain and a cleansing rain as well
Washing all the hate back down into hell
Watering down the confusion and the strife

Uhm, not my best, not my worst, just somethin to read. There are no mention of people here so I hope this isn't taken as a suicidal thing. The loss of life part really has nothing to do with humans. Enjoy?

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.

This is a wonderful piece, full of hope and beauty. You have really impressed me with this one. The writing style is also excellent. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Nicely done here acid.
I liked this one......not yer best, but most certainly far from your worse.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
