I like the simple construction of this poem. Even so, perhaps expanding on it... More lines to tell more of the story, or such... Would make it an even better poem.
There are a few typos, and I have a few suggestions to help it mesh better, as follows: (Thought I'd lump them together, hope its not confusing)
Pitter patter
Brown spots on the concrete
My face
Red from salty tears
The heavens
Cry with me
As the street begins to flood
The world
Cries with me
For someone
They have lost
The world
Tries with me
To see what they have become
The world
Tries with me
Just to overcome
I didn't want to change the content, but I think you get the idea. Flesh out the story a little more and you have an interesting piece. I think you have a lot of potential to be a great poet. Keep at it! :)
