Raindrops on my Face

In the Rain, Stars Align

People used to worry about me,

When I stood outside in the rain.

My mother said I would get a cold.

My father said it might be acid rain.

But I rather be stuck in bed, sniffling,

Or be dissolved away, drop by drop,

If it means the pain would be gone.

Old thing I wrote that no one responded to so I took it down. I tweaked the last line and put it up again because I was reminded of its existence.

Thank you again Silver Serenity for the awesome poster, I will definitely draw inspiration from the ideas behind it and the work of art itself.

And thank you to all of you that decided to take the time to read. This person who humbly pushes down buttons in an attempt to find peace for herself is forever in your debt.

Chapter 30: That girl is smart :) I mean, it's hard to trust a guy after what they do to another girl. You just feel that insecurity, wondering whether he'll repeat the same cycle with you.
