Well, it must be that time! Time to crawl out of the dark corner of my room, and put some of my poems out there! Forewarning, some of them can get to be kinda deep, so i'll start out with something simple.

I had to write this one for an assignment for English class. The topic was to write a poem using personification, and the weather. Here goes nothing.

I can hear it drop,
I can hear it pound,
the soft yet heavy thudding
of the rain upon the ground.

So calming and so peaceful,
Yet, so heart-breaking,
For all of the memories
In the making.

It builds you up
While it tears you down,
Gives you reason to believe
There is no reason to frown.

It can be joyful;
the highlight of your day,
then in the very next moment,
It's all thrown away.

 As it begins to fall heavy,
You can laugh and dance around
Then next thing you know
You find yourself laying there on the ground.

You lay there emotionless
As the each drops dims the light,
With no words to say
you lose the will to fight.

Your thoughts overwhelm you
As the tears fall down your face,
And each mixes with the rain
Leaving not a trace.

You soon can't decipher
between your breaths and the wind
As your body lies there still
And the darkness wins.
