Blame It On The Rain

[stupidxgirl]

a/n: It's storming outside...That's mostly where the concept came from. This one came very easily to me, and for some reason I feel no need to change any of it. IT says the words 'god' and 'damn' a lot LoL, but I like it none the less. Hope someone else feels the same way about it.

Blame it on the rain
that falls and knocks my
heart back a few years-
when all I had was you
and those shiny tin foil
words to keep me warm.

When all I held was your hand
and all I needed was your love
and god damn it all I wanted

was someone like you.

Blame it on the realization
that someone else
is keeping you up
at night with their
fairy tales and their hopeless
romantic stories-
about sweeping me off my feet
and twisting and blending
and smoothing the lines
to the jagged hearts
that kept the men at bay.

Oh god- my fairy tales
my little world
my childlike heart

we all miss you.

When all I had were sparks
and you had the flame
why didn't you know then I
needed you to stick around
to hold me up
to fucking worship one part
of me like I worshiped all of you.

God damn it you fool
why couldn't you see I loved you
when you were down
and penniless and everything
made so little sense-

I was there.

When you needed me to stay
I did it with no regrets

But my god,
why couldn't you tell I fell for you
when no one else
would look your way
and all the clouds were over
that oval shaped head of your's-

I was there.

And I blame it on the looks
you gave me at night
the thunder the lightning-
those sparks and that fire
and my fairy tales-

but good lord,
you feeble
hearted fool-

I miss you.

I liked it ... just overall. This:

"and twisting and blending
and smoothing the lines
to the jagged hearts
that kept the men at bay."

--was my favourite bit. The only problem I have is "Blame it on the rain" STILL reminds me of the Milli Vanilli song and it was distracting me while reading it because it was playing in my head, heh.

Yeah, that song was just on the radio, and then I looked at this and I found it kinda funny. The situation, not the poem...

Well, about the poem. It was good, I thought.

"Oh god- my fairy tales
my little world
my childlike heart

we all miss you."

That was my favorite part.
