Raining Eyes

Raining Eyes

A Poem by Karli

The forecast.

Raining Eyes for the rest of my life.

The eyes of mine were transforming to a well,

toss a quarter at me, make a wish.

See? Look what you've done to me.

My cheeks are stained and red.

I feel drowsy, and cold-hearted.

You've turned me to ice.

When will the storm end?

Will the sun come out tomorrow?

Will the calm wind dry the raindrops from my face?

There has to be a crack within these clouds.

My eyes are blurry from the never-ending rainy days.

It's your fault.

You've turned me into a dark, gray cloud.

You and me. We were the sunshine on a cloudy day.

That's been ruined.

I'm the raindrops greeting the sidewalk,

broken-hearted.

And where are you?

No one knows.

You've left me alone, in the darkness.

Alone with my Raining Eyes.

Straight from the heart. So, hopefully, the emotion comes through well enough.

Very nice write! The emotions were so raw and so real in this piece, and I could really relate to the heartache that you expressed. I liked all of the references to nature and the weather, and thought that it was a really effective way of capturing the mood and tone of the poem. The phrase 'Raining Eyes' was something that I liked, particularly because of the fact that it was a new, intriguing, and creative idea. :) Nice work,
