Revealed
Tears from heaven
Run across skin
Mingle with tears
The noise of the drops is like a drum beat
The rhythm slowly sings a song of defeat
Blackness hides me
I become nothing
Just another drop
The best of my life is around me in this rain
The worst is sung softly in its rhythm of pain
Searching for “end”
Wishing for “purpose”
Cliché’ desires abound
The quest for answers is mocked by my thoughts
The rain washes away the excuses I’ve wrought
Soft light breaks
The tears stop
I slowly blink
The answers come when I know Who cried
The tears from heaven are of He who died
See wretched me
Vile and putrid
Revealed by light
The sun reflects off of my black, glassy sin
The ground is soft beneath my pounding skin
I scream “mercy”
It’s softly granted
New tears begin
The soft light is now burning within my soul
The brightness spreads quickly to every hole
My lips whisper
Feeble and weak
Praise from within
The purpose of living resounds in my every breath
I’ll travel the world to tell of the Light’s life and death

Lovely! Just make the "Who" and the "He" capitalized for "The answers come when I know who cried/The tears from heaven are of he who died". You are talking about God so whenever you use a pronoun for His name, you should capitalize it. :)

Thanks guys!! Your comments seriously mean the world to me! I'm so glad you enjoy them! Oh, and Lucy, I fixed it! I've never been a perfectionist by any means so I never notice stuff like that!
