where the wild flowers grow

It's raining finally..
I've been waiting for
the drops to
show their vengence for
such a long time.. and
when I close
my eyes
you should run away
just like you always do..
'cause it'll be for certain
that I won't
share my
umbrella
with you.

Be sure
my love
that you
leave the color
behind before you
leave..

Remember you'll be
easier to find
with mere
black and white..
If you'd like to
try me,
go ahead but..
Your trembling hints
that you'll give in instead.

I'll gather power,
I
myself
may just
be
an army.
Even worse,
I'm
angry.

My words will be ammunition enough.

I will strike you down..

I refuse to
share
my
umbrella
with you.

Meghan, when I get angry, I get more powerful
with the words, too.....really   powerful  words,
sometimes, actually.  
  
You go, girl!!

Im not a chick and from a completelu male perspective this looks like a chick work of art.  I enjoyed the expression but canr really relate all that well.  It seeme every chick Ive been with has had this need to have power over me and it doesnt work.  
Good poem nonetheless.  lol

Im not trying to be a jerk, just real.

This is full of strong emotion.Take back that power that is yours and let it shine like the brave soul that you are.
