Teardrops in the Rain
By rilLie
15 September 2006
This was done today during Environmental Science. I was too bored. We were talking about the Water Problem in our world. the teardrops were initiated by Meggy, a friend, who won't stop singing a song of the same title, featured in Pixel Perfect (Disney.). I hope you do enjoy.

I'm hurt as I see your face
your cheeks pink mounts of water
tears running down, inseperable
from the pouring rain altogether.

I see your eyes silently pleading
like orbs of such great sorrow
pleading, asking and begging me
for a life I could not borrow.

It's hard for me as well, you know
watching the sequences of time
what it did to you and me and all
your sorrows and all mine

And now, as I watch water, forever life
how negative an effect it can make
as teardrops mix with God's blessing,
a silent, crying, pleading lake.

This is a beautiful piece, I can tell a lot of emotion went into this, and there are some great metaphors. My kind of poem. 
 
Well done 
 
Laura.

I can only agree with what the other memebers have said. A very emotional, well structured poem. I shall look out for more of your work

Added to the others I say: "Lovely". Yes, the title is eye-catching and relevant to the story. Yes, you want to read on. Lovely!
thanks, to all.
