    Good job! Only Advice... (I say this to everyone) Commas and periods. They really do help! They are worth the extra effort; they give your poem a rhythm, make words more powerful, and also just make your poem look nicer, this is what I mean when I say commas and periods.
    Here is the Original

    Rain starts to fall
    Slowly at first
    The drops fall faster
    And then the cloud bursts
    My heart is ripped open again
    My soul shattered to pieces
    I want all of this to end so badly
    But the pain never ceases
    Why can't I get over you?

    Edited version.

    Rain starts to fall,
    slowly at first,
    the drops fall faster,
    and then, the cloud bursts.

    My heart, is ripped open again,
    my soul, shattered to pieces.
    I want all of this to end so badly,
    but the pain never ceases.

    Why can't I get over you?

    Now people can tell when a sentence ends and a new one begins. Now the poem flows a little different, because now it has more of a rhythm, it also makes your poem seem longer. And of course I left an empty line, because in my opinion it makes it more organized looking. It also makes it look a bit longer, and it seems to make the poem go smoother. But I guess these are all just my opinion. Other then that Good job! I did like the emotion that you got out in this poem, and the words you chose. Good job!
