I'm waiting for the rain to fall
and wash away my memories of you
I’m waiting for this pain
To go with it to
You hurt me
More then I realized
You left me here
Alone
Paralyzed
I was lost
In the illusions of love
I didn’t realize
I was a rag doll
Abused
Unloved
You took away everything
You turned my world upside down
My heart
Black
Cold
My life
A mess
Not worth living
A single thought of you
Would bring tears to my eyes
Whenever I remembered
That you told me those lies
Your words
Unforgivable
Your actions
Intolerable
I'm waiting for the rain to fall
and wash away my memories of you
I’m waiting for this pain
To go with it to
and wash away my memories of you
I’m waiting for this pain
To go with it to
You hurt me
More then I realized
You left me here
Alone
Paralyzed
I was lost
In the illusions of love
I didn’t realize
I was a rag doll
Abused
Unloved
You took away everything
You turned my world upside down
My heart
Black
Cold
My life
A mess
Not worth living
A single thought of you
Would bring tears to my eyes
Whenever I remembered
That you told me those lies
Your words
Unforgivable
Your actions
Intolerable
I'm waiting for the rain to fall
and wash away my memories of you
I’m waiting for this pain
To go with it to

Best of luck and thanks for entering!! -
Nice job! I like the form of this poem! I really felt the lost love in this poem! Great job and good luck!

I love this poem! I also love the quote you took from the Nightwish song..."there's a poison drop in this cup of man, to drink it is to follow the left hand path..." Sorry, I love that song. As for the poem. Yoour word choice is excellent, it really makes the reader experience the emotions, not just read words, and the form, flow, and rhyme scheme is flawless. Lovely.

wow
this was great; I loved the way the words flowed and how much emotion was introduced in just the first two lines;
"I'm waiting for the rain to fall
and wash away my memories of you
I’m waiting for this pain
To go with it too"
I like it alot, I also like the red text as well; somehow I think it shows how much hurt there is in a poem.
Well done!!

Ah Poetess!
Rain is purifying, and you used the metaphor well! To dance in the rain, washing away the blood of hurt and woundedness, to spin free with glee, to shed all that kept you from being that inner ME! Wow. You sketched it so well. I think I am gonna dance in the rain, now.
Love
Myra
Thank you for reading my work, Precious.
