In my heart
a new wound bleeds,
there's so many wrongs,
so many needs,
my thoughts polluted
by your acid rain,
unmerciful words
left my dreams in pain.

But it doesn't hurt
as much as it did,
cause I told myself
you needed to rid
your thoughts of hate,
anger and pain
by drowning me
in your acid rain.

So let it rain
from your heart so dark,
let it rain
past the turn back mark,
cause I can take it,
I'll pay the cost,
if that will help
your soul so lost.

Planning big can be a gamble...I have already rolled the dice!

Hey, I liked this one too! I'm not good at picking things apart though but it's still good :-)

Nicely done! I liked it.

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

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Acid rain.. hmm...
You know i have a friend who gets me in trouble all the time and i think hes in jail right now... and i tried helping him for such a long time now.. and it took it's toll on me.. thats something that must be considered... this poem touches me deep because i felt this way everytime i hung out with this guy..."It it will help"...
like.. "If i sacrifice a little of myself for you, it will not be in vain as long as it helps...  RIGHT?"

Love is God. Love is war. Love is what your life is for.
