You left me alone
Outside in the cold
Drenched in my tears
That will never dry

Walking the streets
In an endless sleep
Searching for somewhere warm to hide

Abandoned by my shadow
Thunder clashes in my head
What’s done is done
And what’s said is now dead

&quot;Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.&quot; - Thoreau<br /> &quot;Sometimes you&#039;re flush and sometimes you&#039;re bust, and when you&#039;re up, it&#039;s never as good as it seems, and when you&#039;re down, you never think you&#039;ll be up again, but life goes on.&quot;

HEY! I saw your comment on my piece, 'Cry Me A River' and decided to check out some of your work...WOW. Can I just say, you have really good, short lines to convey the idea across and I really, honestly adore that. The fact that it is quite sharp and there is not much flow adds very nicely to the poem's character as well. Initially, I thought, 'Nah, no smoothness,' but I read it again and thought it was better this way! I really, really liked it! I hope you never stop writing because I would hate, and I mean HATE for that to happen. And I never say H-A-T-E...so, yeah! Trust me, you are good. No, that's definitely an understatment...don't stop, okay?! Keep up the amazing stuff :)
