I like the rain,
and the taste of your
tears on my tongue,
the loneliness &
confusion seems
so far away...
as I give way
And give in
to the sound of
raindrops falling...
forgetting
I was ever me...
just being one
with the rythm,
the sound of
the raindops falling...
my being
slowly fading
to oblivion...

you can hurt me using the sharp edge of what you said.....* jewel kilcher

It seems that you have a definite affinity for rain... is there any reason behind that?  Is there some aspect of your being that you personally attribute to rain?

I think it's a really wonderful theme and it works so well with most of your poetry.  Sorry if I've been playing spot-the-theme with some of the poets in here lately, I just can't help it.

I really, really like this poem... the title makes it seem like you were sitting down somewhere, and just started writing this out of nowhere.  The style of writing also suggests spontaneity.  Don't take that the wrong way, I really enjoyed this poem a great deal.

I'm starting to really understand your writing, Anawnda.  I also want to mention that I was reading a chapter for my World Religion class on Hinduism, and something made me think of you...

"Brahman is sat, reality itself; chit, pure consciousness; and ananda, bliss."

Is this the meaning of your name?

Sorry if that's off-topic.  I absolutely adore this poem, great writing, Anawnda.

actually anawnda just came out of nowhere but thanks for giving meaning to it, yeah i think it suits me. you were right, i was just sprawled on my couch and i was so bored and depressed and it was raining and i just sat there and stared for a really long time and started writing this, i guess i like observing stuff since i live with my sister and im usually alone, i didnt write both poems at the same time, i dunno, i just love watching th rain, i also spend my night wathching the sky particularly the moon, maybe id write a poem about it sometime
