Not sure if this will make any sense or what you'll think of it.


I'm standing in line waiting for a heart.

When did life come to this.
I wonder.

My heart was not marked not
able to be fixed,
more it just left my body
one day.

I think it flew away.

.............

Emtyness is all that contains me now.
All i am now is a emty body wondering aimlesly,
slowly wasteing away.

My place on earth.....

useless.

With the air around me turning sour,
I feel my grip slipping.
Soon I won't be able to hold on any longer.

My life will slip through my eyes and i shall be no more.
.
.
.
.
I will feel no remorse for what might have been.
.
.
.
.
.
I may have lived a thousand years.
.
.
.
.
.
.

But I guess that shall never be.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
As I lay here on the brink of my reality.....

fate can only take you so far, the rest is up to you

I liked it, the beginning confused me a bit, but I got it towards the end. The last line is very powerful. Good job.

This one was great.  The entire thing was powerful, but the end line just made it better.  I liked this one a lot.

This was really good. I agree...the whole poem itself was very powerful...but it was the last line that jumped out at me.  Great job and thanks for sharing!

The ending was really cool.  I think the format of this poem was well done.  The way you had those long line breaks were really awesome to add effect.  Nicely done.. I don't quite understand what you're saying here, but you did a very nice job just the same.  I enjoyed this.

I agree - the last line was incredibly powerful. The spaces added a nice effect too. A truelly great free-verse. Thanks for the read. I enjoyed it.

this is a really powerful poem..and i have to agree with the rest on the last line...it was really good ...i liked the fact that that you added "my" in there...it made it sort of more immeadiate and personal...nice touch kat ...another thing that i like about this is that you can take any part of the poem and read it as its own seperate entity...great stuff..

Nicely done here. I liked the format. Well done!
