Rainy Day Blues

R ainy day blues
A lways make it worse, for
I nside I still feel so dead
N ever to love again, because
Y ou broke my heart
D estroyed my life, causing
A nger right down to my soul
Y et, I must stop the blaming now!

W e said our goodbyes
O ver and over, we really did try
M ost unfortunately nothing worked but
A cceptness of what life dealt us.
N ow is the time to heal!

Great write. I mean if we chose to stay or go we have to stop blaming to heal. Blaming and reliving the past only opens the wounds again, that need to be what...mended again! I would try to make it rhyme more...I love rhyme in poetry. But other than that GOOD luck in the contest!

  Thank you so much for taking time to read my work. This is not a rhyming type poem. The contest giver wanted free verse and acrostics about a certain topic. I used her name RainyDay Woman to build from and the the body from the requirements stated. Still I do appreciate your thoughts of rhyming. Thank you. Rose
