rain seeps down the ice metal rail of the window3
dull red veins throb over eyeballs4
eyes open to dank dark room and to the wall5
It is seven thirty6
pains in ur foot back and head 7
are already working their voodoo8
dressed and not remembering how9
hot tears fall in time of impeding shower10
far off laughter and jeers wash over lowered hood11
painful ringing of bells, long lecture of nothing worth knowing12
short empty tasteless lunch alone in a circus of actors13
cold next to the wall 14
tired ready for home15
dreamy walk home16
it early and books wont be opened for a while17
aching back lies down against the welcoming warm mattress18
promises of other world and love await19
sirens blare unheard under the ambiance of oncoming rain20

i'm in a real bad mood. Depressed if you will. I haven't felt like this in a awhile. I scared the crap out of my friends. Cause i'm the strong one who won't let anything get to her. except to day it did. I feel so lost and tired. Oh, well.
fah...twilight is amazing except ppl who hate it*

this is a bit of a depressing poem, but it's beautifully written. Great job. I really like how you tied the rain in with what I read in as tears. Great writing and keep penning.

I love how you arranged the words 'drip and drop' in an interesting way. It really gave your poem a good impact. Just a reminder you may want to proofread that. I can feel in your poem that you are depressed and I can understand that too, because I also have my depression moments. Powerful moods can make poems so good!
