    Crying In The Rain
    By Tammie ♥

    Clouds emerge in a clear blue sky
    Tears appear in my light green eyes
    Darkness falls on a once bright day
    Sorrow rises as happiness fades away

    Walking empty streets, no one in sight
    Lifeless surroundings, to my delight
    I always prefer to be alone
    With my thoughts of the unknown

    Rain drops begin to slowly fall
    Faster and faster, but still so small
    With the rain, tears start to follow
    A lump in my throat I try to swallow

    Crying in the rain so no one can see
    Sorrow and suffering that’s become of me
    Washing away all this hidden pain
    Disguising the tears with the welcome rain

    Clouds part letting the sunshine in
    Realization has come from within
    A sign sent down from up above
    To give another chance to love

    I walk home with a scrap of hope
    That at least for now I will cope
    Move on from the past and its mistakes
    Learn from them, at least for my sake.

    I think I have commented on all the poems I owe... Some of You may get more r/r/c from me in the near future as You all have some very good work...

    If I have not commented on the poem You submitted here, it is either because it is in the friendship category or I couldn't find it... If You have used a different title in your accounts poems, please leave the title here and I will gladly go and comment on it...

    Thanks again to everybody who took part.
