Array ( [sid] => 136244 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Light Up Ahead [time] => 2007-07-26 13:57:09 [hometext] => For Jessi R. [bodytext] => The anger that coursed through her veins
As she wandered down the street,
Couldn’t match the rainstorms temper
As rain pounded at her feet.
The rainstorms violent fury
Made it impossible to tell
Whether rain cascaded down her cheeks
Or if it were tears that fell.
Desperate shadows from her past
Haunt her day and night.
Nightmares from her memories
Made her hope and courage take flight.
Constant battles rage inside her unrepentant heart.
With no hope left for tomorrow
She closes her eyes and envelopes the dark.
What would she give if she could find a way
To make her secret turmoil go away?
Its hard to go forward without a light up ahead.
Hot tears fall on the pavement
Her soul feels like lead.
Suddenly she crumbles, and falls to her knees.
Her death will come painfully, without any ease.
Her eyes start to water
As she wonders what tomorrow will bring.
She knows the next few moments
Will end her suffering.
She lays shivering on the sidewalk,
Hands clutching her chest,
Wondering if anyone will mourn
Her tragic, untimely death. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 208 [topic] => 48 [informant] => AnenaLynne [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

The anger that coursed through her veins
As she wandered down the street,
Couldn’t match the rainstorms temper
As rain pounded at her feet.

Or if it were tears that fell.
Desperate shadows from her past

Hands clutching her chest,
Wondering if anyone will mourn
Her tragic, untimely death.

Wow, I have read some of your poetry and I must say that I'm quite impressed. You have a way of expressing yourself and I absolutely love how you bring it across to your reader. Keep at it and I can see you getting far with your writing. Wishing you and Jessi R much brighter days ahead. Goodluck and keep up the great work.
warm hugs,
dreamer
