Raindrops

Alone I sit here watching the rain,
Droplets floating off into the darkness...
Where will each droplet find to rest?
How will my life change if I make the choice?
The night is cool and Autumn leaves fall,
Sparkling with wetness from the rain;
I sit here and remember all the choices made,
Trying to talk to a "higher power" to help me.
Surely if I were a raindrop like these,
I could float in and out of lives secretly,
But I am a person with a heart and soul,
The only comparison is the tears you see.
So, unlike the raindrops that disappear in the dark,
My existence is obvious and so real are my tears....
I cannot hide behind a cloud or the darkness,
Dealing with choices is a part of my life;
So, I will enjoy the serenity the rain brings,
And dream of being a raindrop that disappears.

| Nice poem. I like the descriptions of fall and the rain. It gives the sadness and longing of the poem and good background. |

| Very interesting and definitely poetic. It reminds me of the movie "Blade Runner" when Rutger Hauer's character is talking of his memories while in a rain storm and says, "All those moments...will be lost...in time...like...tears in rain." |

Hi purplerosepoet,
You really have a way with words. It was refreshing to read your poem in spite of its underlying sadness . Keep it up!
