Whispering kiss, Sparkeling reality, A mask of tears, Glistening for eternity. It waits... A flash of lightning, Across the sky, Announces the thunder's rumble, Listen to it cry. It screams... Then the tears Begin to fall Leaving nothing behind Except the destruction of us all. It laughs... It hears the torment, It feels the pain, The voices won't let it free, It looks up at the rain. It cries... Its struck with realization, Things it couldn't see before, The storms continues to drag on, As it thinks more and more. It seeths... No one seems to wonder, No one seems to care its gone, Its life like paper, on which they have drawn. It burrows... Deep within the darkened ground, This thing of nature hides, To forever be forgotten, lost in earth's insides. It waits... Until once again it will be discovered. If You Wanna See A Rainbow, You've Gotta Live Through The Rain. And If You Wanna See Through Love, You've Gotta Live Through The Pain. |

Now THAT is poetry. It's emotion captured by words and arranged so perfectly that it draws you in, and doesnt let go. The best thing about it is, that you dont want it to let go, you want it to keep going. Thank you for that, it is truly a work of art. But soft, what light through yonder window break. It is the east, and Juliet is the sun... |

Very interesting read. A very differently styled poem, put together in a unique way. Thanks for a great read. --Marie "You can be idealistic for all of ten seconds before you die." (Imitation of Life) |

Actually, I thought that this wasn't your best piece. But since you're not open to critiques, I won't say anything more. Keep up the writing, though. -Leah |
