A Poem by Rain

Why I write the way I do.

I write my songs about lost loves

dreams that might have been

memories of summer nights

stories with a bitter end

my words are written about the past

sometimes it's hard to explain

They are who I am and what I feel

I find beauty hidden in the pain

I can't write about happy times

even though I've had my share

I am a poet of the down highway

of lost souls who wander there

I guess I got a ways to go

I guess I ain't quite grown

I hold on to misery

to the pain I've always known

Maybe someday I'll change my style

write a different song

Maybe someday it all will fit

I'll be someone..I'll finally belong

But for now my words

tell the story of me

all that I've seen

in my quest to be free

you are right, your words may seem tragic but they are beautiful because the are REAL, like you.. trust me no one reads your work and thinks "oh he is so ho-hum" because you always have something interesting and wise to say thru a life that's seen many things... it makes me want to live, maybe not the same experiences you've had, but the depth of your experience.
