\"If columbus would have turned back, no one would have blamed him. No one would have remembered him either.\"

\"If music be the food of love, play on.\"


This rain of sorrow that is pouring will lighten,
This daunting wind that howls, won’t frighten,
The floods of your tears will flow away,
The garden’s dead flowers, will be your boquet.
The mountain of used paper, will disenigrate through the night,
The vine of unbearable thoughts wrapped around you, won’t be so tight.
The gloomy clouds that mock you, will go into a hush,
Tomorrow, this land of sturdy agony, will be nothing but mush.

Wait around, turn your frown into a grin,
For I see the sun, in the horizon.

This is amazing. Your lines are so original and beautiful! The way you describe things is so unique, reading this gave me both a new outlook on the world, and new hope for everything in it!

thanks. THe message is when something bad happens to you, to not get to down because things will always clear up/the sun will come out (metaphorically)

I liked it all the way up until the last to lines. They just didn't make sense to me. Other than that it was five start quality!
