It’s Raining Blood
 

Crimson, Crimson,

Dripping on the glass.

The macabre scarlet on the grass,

Seeping, seeping, into the ground,

And from my heart this blood doth pound.

 

Crimson, crimson, on the pane,

Place my cheek there,

Chilling bane.
 

Breathing, breathing, out comes fog,

I thought my love could relieve the smog.

But my love is greed, and to it I must heed,

This
            Need,
This need,

This torturous need.

 

Crimson, crimson,

On the glass,

The deathly blood upon the grass.

Place my palm upon the pane,

Numbing, numbing is this warm bane.

Very well done. I love the repititions. Maple is right that it is exquisitely beautiful. The hiden meaning behind the blunt, numbing surfice. The emotion and power. It is truly, truly extraordinary.

I do prefer a happy ending as well-- I usually don't write in dark tones, but sometimes, on rainy days, inspiration kicks in and there's no controlling a tragic character!

hi! lillian.

1. LILLIAN: The first name of Lillian leads you to assume considerable responsibility and to prefer to work independently, without direction or interference from others because you have very definite ideas of your own. Your mind is quick to comprehend and you can be depended upon to do any job well. Because you tend to be somewhat of a perfectionist, you might insist on doing too many things yourself instead of delegating jobs to others who might do less satisfactory work. This name does make you quite direct and straight-to-the-point.


2. LILLIAN LU: There are 9 letters in your name. Those 9 letters total to 39. There are 4 vowels and 5 consonants in your name.

What your first name means: Latin Female Variant of Lilian: Lily (after the flower). Pure.
English Female Variant of Lillian derived from the flower name Lily. Symbol of innocence; purity; beauty.

Your number is: 3
The characteristics of #3 are: Expression, verbalization, socialization, the arts, the joy of living.

The expression or destiny for #3: An Expression of 3 produces a quest for destiny with words along a variety of lines that may include writing, speaking, singing, acting or teaching; our entertainers, writers, litigators, teachers, salesmen, and composers. You also have the destiny to sell yourself or sell just about any product that comes along. You are imaginative in your presentation, and you may have creative talents in the arts, although these are more likely to be latent. You are an optimistic person that seems ever enthusiastic about life and living. You are friendly, loving and social, and people like you because you are charming and such a good conversationalist. Your ability to communicate may often inspire others. It is your role in life to inspire and motivate; to raise the spirits of those around you.

The negative side of number 3 Expression is superficiality. You may tend to scatter your forces and simply be too easygoing. It is advisable for the negative 3 to avoid dwelling on trivial matters, especially gossip.

Your Soul Urge number is: 22
A Soul Urge number of 22 means: The Soul Urge of the master number 22 is very much that of the master builder. You would like to use your abilities in an important humanitarian undertaking, and have an innate desire is to express the significant power you feel in a concrete manner, as a builder, engineer, diplomat, etc. In some way you want to make a considerable contribution to the world.

This number often denotes a high degree of diplomatic abilities and high ideals. You are a very capable person and you may possess special leadership abilities that you can and should develop. People respect you and recognize your superior foresight and vision.

The negative side of the 22 soul urge is a high degree of nervous energy and a tendency to be very dominating. It is unfortunate that all who possess the urge of 22 do not use its energies to the greatest advantage; but then it should be recognized that these energies are understandably the most difficult to focus and direct.
