Stand In The Rain

by Krista   Feb 9, 2009


Feel the cool drops,
tears from a saddened heaven.
Open up your hands,
hold it in close.

Time is going so quick,
blurring past innocent eyes.
Grasp a piece to keep,
stand in the rain.

Echoes of silence
reverberate through the air.
Cries of lonliness,
let it all out.

Hold onto time,
brace for the pain,
watch your life outside,
away with passive eyes.

    "Feel the cool drops,

    ^^I really like this opening stanza, I enjoyed the imagery and emotion and it pulled me into the piece.

    "Time is going so quick,
    blurring past innocent eyes.
    Grasp a piece to keep,
    stand in the rain."

    ^^I really liked the third line here, it stood out to me the most, I found it very moving and powerful.

    "Echoes of silence
    reverberate through the air.
    Cries of lonliness,
    let it all out. "

    ^^ I found this stanza to be somewhat weaker than the others, maybe work on this one a little?

    "Hold onto time,
    brace for the pain,
    watch your life outside,
    away with passive eyes. "

    ^^favourite stanza of the poem, I found it hard hitting and a great way to wrap the piece up.

    I liked the idea behind this poem, I found it to be original and unique in concept.
