Dreams Fall Apart
Raindrops pelting your window,
commiserate with your pain.
And simulating teardrops;
trickle slowly down the pane.
You left home on an impulse,
chasing love at seventeen.
And although you trusted him,
he abruptly fled the scene.
Reality devastates;
as you comprehend your fate.
For your heart has been betrayed;
and love has morphed into hate.
Left all alone and pregnant;
you cannot conceal your shame.
And as your eyes fill with tears,
you know life won't be the same.
Your hands cannot stop trembling;
watching your life fall apart.
And anguish begins to gnaw
at the insides of your heart.
From a fetal position;
you witness the heavens cry.
And stare up at the raindrops;
falling from a sobbing sky.
