~THE RAIN ECHOES MY SADNESS~ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ The rain performs it's melancholy song tonight for only my heart to hear, lightening flashes across a blackened sky, stars fade in their glory for, my sorrow has darkened their light and their hope, my voices cries out in agony singing a mournful melody soothing and haunting like the rhythm of the rain, violent and empty like the thunder's wrath, alone in a sky of lost dreams and regrets, the rain echoes my sorrow, whilst mimicing the river of my despair, oceans of the cloud's tears tap in surrender against my windowpane, it's cry of love nevermore touches the depths of my paralyzed heart, a slow demise from the rain's tears and my own, drowning inside this coccoon of endless depression *By Melissa Honeybee* The beauty of poetry gives me wings to fly |

Very nice work. I enjoyed the imagery and I always enjoy the rain. Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |
