Rain

Rain, it comes on down
it washes the ground
it leaves behind an earthy smell
and soothing sounds

"The approach of dark, ominous clouds are something I look forward to sometimes."

Until the end

Until the day breaks
The moon will rise and
End with the crickets

"I will stay."
I really wanted to try a poem like this where the first words in each line spell out a sentence.

Coloring Book

Life is like a coloring book
You may color outside the lines
You may make mistakes;
You may use colors
You may feel happy;
You may use black and gray
You may feel sad;
You may not feel like coloring
You may not feel like anything;
You may hurt your wrists
You may experience troubles and pains;
You would finish the page
And life will feel complete

"I hurt my wrist coloring a coloring page while listening to a podcast for the first time. It was worth it though; the podcast is good and so was my coloring."

Love(?)

I love you so much
It hurts
Knowing that it'll never be true
'Cause I never knew how to love

"Tell me: what does love feel like?"

A story

I want to tell a story
But I don't know what to say
I'm feeling inspired
But not every day

"I have so many thoughts, but not enough talent."
Funny how I then continued to write four other poems.

Human

I'm me
You're you
We're all different
It doesn't matter
We love
We hate
We're human

"Our emotions, the negatives and the positives, make us human. Our mistakes and our sins and our weaknesses make us human."

Instruments

Instruments
They lay in cases
People get them out
And start to play

They're used to make such a beautiful melody

Instruments
I don't like them
The only sound they make
Is white noise

"What if instead of beautiful noises, each instrument made a type of white noise. Like static, you know. No notes. Just eerie sounds, nothing peaceful."
