Raindrops fall
June 13, 2013
Pitter Patter
The raindrops fall.
The bleary sky cries
Tear drops from her eyes.
All she had lost.
Wisps of hair damp.
Her eyes moist.
She straightens herself
Moving on once more.
She falls again.
Unable to go.
World crashing beneath her.
She cries out.
Voice swept by the wind.
No one to her aid.
Pitter Patter
The raindrops fall.
A knife to the throat.
A note wrote.
A life taken once more.

Wow intense. At first I thought you personified the rain, but when I realized that there was another figure I was surprised. I liked it--a little dark, but as i said before, you shocked me a bit.
