    Well, it's a pretty long poem. I'd advice you try not to write very long poems. Coz some readers might lose interest or wont even read if they see the poem that is really long.

    Anyway...

    Woken up by what I can not say
    fingers of rain tap softly at my window pane
    it's still dark outside
    it's not yet (shown,) the light of day
    = try changing my window pane to...
    -The window pane.
    - change shown to visible then put a dash after it.

    I came out and helped him to his feet
    put his arm around my shoulder
    (and I look to the sky)
    as the silver rain falls, we both start to weep
    =And I gaze up into the sky

    Oh yeah change all the words to past tense. or whatever tense you're using.

    A suggestion is. Try to use more descriptive words - it enhances the poem.

    5/5. Lol, I was about to say that it seemed incomplete when I realized that the title is "A Stranger: PART I." I can definitely see a story unfolding. You may want to check the tenses on your verbs; I think you switch from present to past at one point in the poem, so unless that's intentional, you'll want to take a look at that. Good work nevertheless... PM me when you write the second part.

    Excellent poem. I cant wait for the rest. lol. kind of inspires me to write a poem, not like this, but still inspiration enough. a 5/5 poem indeed, crying with the rain.

    I like this, I get it, well mostly... I think. I really want to read the rest and also I have to say that even though its a longer poem, I love it. I mean it worked and didn't feel forced yet it seemed amazing. However it feels like it was not planned at all... not that any poem should be, but you get my point... I hope. Anyway I'm off to find the next part!!!!
