My mind is a mess,
and usually i’m pretty organized.
But today is a day of darkness,
no more sunny skies.
It’s mostly cloudy, the world’s gone gray.
Would it be worse, if I asked you to stay?
I don’t want to be in my own company,
it’s no good for me.
No rainbows, just rain boots and rain coats.
Do I dare jump in the puddles?
What if it’s too deep?
I see what I thought to be my reflection, but it isn’t me.
The rain has yet to stop falling,
when will it end?
If I called on you, could you be my friend?
Could you be my diary?
The one that I write poems in,
and set my feelings free.
When they day has been too much,
and it’s myself that I can’t trust,
could I ask that of you?
Or is it too much?
cos sometimes I’m too much,
I’m too intense.
I know…
I reek of desperation, it’s a dreadful stench.
But to be in your arms, it’s cleanses me.
I cling to your warmth, as if it’s life or death.
Just please, I’m begging you,
don’t leave me by myself….

I love this because, the dark is my friend when scribbling. The dark is an embryo in the womb of the mind. Keep on, getting on with your writing.

Hi,
dont try to scare me with your pic.. Mr, Abbey.
Hi,
i being Indian, seen most people look for rain, as agriculture is main occupation and without water people cant survive best example is Iraq people dont have drinking water and we dream to dance in rain when it comes to blew off with floods storms and its funny to think so. I loved water bearing clouds, that give rain. I see in the pic, there are no tides, is it a lake by the way. I dont understand what you are trying to show in pic, the dark clouds and the rain. I know your phone must be not a iphone and a water insensitive.
Your lines are pure poetic. Thank you for sharing.
I completely agree for a woman her man is guide and for man his woman is support. I am with my man.

Very well expressed. It is a well-felt plea that we all can relate to. Your version is precise and captures the feelings well.
Now cheer up! 😉
Thank you! All good here now. xx
Powerfully penned, PG. Excellent write my friend. Your plea is so authentic and real, and your reading expresses the emotional element of the words themselves. We all face self-doubt and our vulnerability escapes through our deepest fears sometimes. Nicely done. Appreciate you.
