Like tears down a child's face
A child who was abandoned
Whose life is but a disgrace
The thunder rages as it will
As will many when is revealed
The names of two who switched around
In hope that one who's lost is found
The lightning flashes off and on
Like that of the girl's smile
As quickly as it comes, it goes
For all on Earth in vile.

Most everyone who's read this poem liked it (save for those who saw it with it's terrible background), but somehow, I don't think anyone will ever get what this poem is truly about.

Hm, I didn't get it. So, I guess that makes this an intriguing write. I am not the one who needs to anyway.....best of luck!!!!

If the one who's lost is not you, perhaps the one lost should not be found, sometimes it's much better that way. Thanks for entering my contest, this is very capturing.

Sorry I never replied to that message, I've made a habit of kinda skimming messages and didn't realize I was supposed to respond!

Alright, well let me just tell you that I hate the background. It's really difficult to read your poem. I shouldn't have to highlight what you've written to read it. Anyway, the poem was interesting. I'm unsure about some of the lines. Especially this one:
"Who's like is a disgrace"
Who's like? What does that mean? I think this piece could use some work. Although it's a good start. -
that's a really bad background. I can't even read the poem. And it's kinda mesmerising...

I love storms. :-) The poem is nice, but the background (really cool) is too distracting for reading it very well.

I like this, though their are a few grammar/spelling mistakes. Also, i like the background, but with the lightness of the font the poem's hard to read.
