hammering on the roof,
reverberating

piercing the very fabric

Unheard agonies
utterly expressed,
long retained tears

The water drips,
slipping from the roof in tiny rivulets,
silent and constant
exhausting my resolve,
mimicking the torment
sliding down my coarse cheeks.

silent and constant
exhausting my resolve,
mimicking the torment
sliding down my coarse cheeks.

While the torrent will eventually end,

Very well written. I liked it. It had some power, subtle, yet flagrant there.

Good imagery. I love the concept at the ending, but maybe word it a little more subtle. Then again, maybe not... God bless
