This was inspired by my favorite artist, Amy Lee. She wrote a song on her own before she decided to start the band Evanescence. She wrote a song about running away in the rain and how it disguised her tears as she fled from everything she wanted to get away from. So this is sort of Amy Lee-esque, and it really just flowed out of me. So I hope you like it.
______________________________________________
Listen to each drop of rain
Each holding secrets in vain
Frantically searching for someone to listen
Their stories carry more than remorse
Please don’t let go
Can’t I stay for a while?
It’s just too hard to say good bye
Listen to the rain weeping
I stand alone in the storm.
Suddenly sweet words are heard.
Hurry they say for you haven’t much time…
Open your eyes to the love around you
You may feel you’re alone
But I’m here still with you
You can do what you dream; you can be who you wish
Just remember
To listen to the rain.

YESSSS RAIN!!! i <3 rain and youu, but serisously this is really good but sad like, "listen to the rain weeping. i stand alone in the storm." it sounds like your lonely and your waiting for someone to reachout to youu. <3333
Hmmm. I hate to be the “Negative-Nelly” but this piece needs some serious work. For one thing it would much improved if you took out all the bad bits and rewrote it as more of a sea shanty. It has potential to be good but it really lacks that je ne sais quiche that would make it great. More on that later though. For now, bask in my scorn.
