Raindrops Fall Like Teardrops

Raindrops fall down like Teardrops as this child's fear of the unknown fills his heart with doom His life is balanced with only gloom Never smiles Never talks Only pain as he walks Raindrops fall down like Teardrops as he hides the bruise's beneath his clothes Broken an blue as he is abused Never knowing always confused Raindrops fall down like Teardrops As he pretends ever things alright He suffers ever night From the hands of someone dear His life is full of fear Raindrops fall down like Teardrops as the pains to much to bare he takes his life as no one cares The Raindrops stop with no Teardrops found his life meant nothing to no one who cared Love an hurt are in the same someones life is not a game.

Hi Anita! This your first contribution to Soup comes with strong emotions; sadness and pain prevail throughout; the repeated first line of each stanza is very effective. Thank you for visiting my poem! ~ Regards // paul

Anita, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
