White lilies and bruised purple roses

By Lob

Watching the rain come down As I stare up into the black clouds Kneeling at your grave with white lilies and bruised purple roses Wishing I could have you back To hold one more time To touch your face and feel the warmth of your skin Looking into the clouds Feeling the rain mix with my tears Kneeling at your grave with white lilies and bruised purple roses The rain shattering my heart with every drop No sound playing in my head Just silence and pain Never knowing if id ever see your face your eyes your mouth again But wishing doesn’t do any good It only keeps the pain locked up Please set me free Let my heart glide into the night sky and shine with the moon Kneeling at your grave with white lilies and bruised purple roses.

I love it. This is so good. Not to pry, but it seems like a loved one died. Is it that, or is it kneeling at the grave of a lost love? Hm.....

I liked it. The poem manages to convey a feeling of immense pain within the protagonist, that's such a high level of emotional pain it's actually become physical. Excellent job.

Great job! it is really sad when someone we love dies. I think you did a really good job of conveying that feeling.
