Let's start this :)
The sadness of faith
the drops of life
the truth of imagination
these little messages from the sky
giving us a window to the past
touching everything that has ever been on earth
to inspire our wildest dreams
recycling themselves
into our imagination
into history
and into the lives of everything
rain
the sadness of faith

Softly, She Whispers...
Pitter, patter, on my rooftops,
hear the gentle water drops,
i sit by the window,
near the wall,
looking at the rain,
as it slowly falls
memories are tied to it,
the reminding sound,
where our happy times,
could always be found,
a snuggled huddle,
a cozy fire,
me and her together,
our love and desire
now i look at the rain,
she looks back,
a smile on her face that night,
my mind would retract.
I still do love her,
but where could she be,
so i will love the rain,
for her and me.
my theme today shall be:
emotion

Water of Life
Gentle clouds, gathering in formation,
pour down clear tears, of precipitation
to clense this gulible human being,
and his heart's last bloody beating.
Having compassion, for new found love
he watches the clouds, gather above.
Solemnly waiting, for the chance
to once more see, her gazing glance
Where lusting eyes, would finally lock
and beating hearts, would never stop.
In the eyes of lovers, this was not futile
to wait this long, all the while
rotting on the inside, dying on the out
masking the pain, muffling that shout
At the commence of life's final act.
Oncoming Rain, help to purify
this broken life, and that painful cry
Let him dissipate, into the land
where his life's first act, first began.
Sever him of, this woeful strife
to fill him with, the water of life.

Wash Away
I am waiting for something to wash away the stains
I am waiting for them to be washed down the drain
But just like a window pane, there will always be streaks in which I cannot leave behind.
There will always be the pain that I feel inside.
SO I wait for the rain to wash away what it can
For I am tired of being looked at with disdain.
SO for that reason I don't complain but I just abstain from everyday life.
Until I can learn to maintain my strife.

Wash Away
A spray of water from the ground
As you walk along the street
The drains surrounded by small lakes
So many drops there is no beat
It flows together in constant sound
Uniting soul and sense
And the world around you feels as if
It is a bit less tense
No more waiting for the blood
To be spilt upon the earth
For the release has come upon us
And it fills our minds with mirth
A smell that lingers clearly
New beginnings on the rise
A sweep of water that rinsed clean
A whole new pack of lies
And although my clothes weigh me down
And with chills my body shakes
Walking through this turbulence
Is all it really takes
To remind me of my presence
I’m still here, I’m still alive
Filled with calm and utter peace
I’m excited about the dive
There’s more waiting out there now
That has never been known before
And you walk among the changer
Ever-present evermore

Rain Dance
The sound of the rain
Is like the melody of the sky.
The clouds are the dancers
And the wind carries the tune.
The beating rain
Lets out a rhythm
Slow, then fast.
An intricate design.
The forceful rain
Pushes against us.
We bundle up,
And close doors.
But in this rain
A woman moves,
She dances, soaked
And alive!
We watch her as
We hide under our shields,
Too afraid to go.
Afraid to follow.

I wanted to try this out :P
"Nature calls you"
Hey! Look at me!
Can't you see me?
Tears drop solemnly to the ground
Can't you see im suffering?
Hey! Look at me!
Can't you hear me?
Thunders soar in pain across the sky
Can't you hear me screaming?
Why won't you look at me?
lightings flash in your face,
making sparkle your waterly eyes.
Are you ignoring me?
No, because my rain make you sad.
Humas as they are,
selfish and egoists,
worrying about their own griefs,
too much engrossed,
to pay attention to anything else.
But that won't make the suffering go away,
because we're dying, because we're in pain.
But this is the price that we all must pay,
for all our mistakes done, in our miserables days.
Guess you and I are the same,
me in the clouds and you under my rain.
Because with tears all the sorrows go away,
and the only left for us is longing,
for a shiny new day.
