I step out of my grave,
Still in the beautiful dress you never got to see.
And the rope left little imprints on me.1
I pull my heart out of my chest,
I hold it out to the acid rain,
Hoping the pain distracts me from all the messy stains.2
Wash me clean of my heartache.
I’m catching little drops on my tongue,
And I think this acid rain has won.3
Burning holes in my tattered flesh.
I’m trying hard to remember our last kiss.
I wonder if it felt as good as this.4
I want to dissolve into the rain, to be a puddle of my own.
I want to melt in your arms, but you wouldn’t want my corpse embrace,
I’m sorry I took myself from your place.5
Can you ever forgive the day, love?
I left when the rain had stopped,
And with the rope I took a subtle drop.6
Try to hear my muffled voice over the choking thunder.
I know you miss me, or I know you used to.
I’m sorry I never got to say “I do.”7
Love, when the rain subsides there shall be a distorted rainbow just for you.
I cried my tears in the acid rain and I never felt more alive, being dead.
In the rain, the only clear thing in our lives, let us be wed.
XD I don't know.

AMAZING POEM!
I think you did really well, well written, you succeded in showing what you wanted to convey, with your words. You set the tone and everything was so vivid--especially the somber scenery. It's kind of sad that the character didn't get a chance to wed her fiance, but I love how she grieves for him even after her death. This was the best stuff I read all day on Storywrite, I really liked it!=)

But I am very happy you liked it.
