Far from where I am going

0 posted 2004-10-19 04:27 PM



Underdone, in transition
between thought to thought
of nothing more
than realizations of lacking
within a longing soul.
hard-pressed and unbelievable
plagueing and consuming
continually ruining
a contradicted heart
not wanting to love
yet continually giving
and longing for
embarrassed yet aware
writing words of love,
words of care
for anyone willing to accept
yet words are never returned.
Would i ever be written about?
thats all i've really wanted.
the pen shall not be discouraged
continually writing words as gifts
never written in expectance
of being returned.

(a free verse that was written in spare time. Not the best write so i'd appreciate feedback on how this can be made better. I hope you enjoy.

nice use of muffin

this is the kind of stuff i tend to write when im just penning in my free time.. kind of just going with it, i guess.. as it may prove to be quite useful in having these visions into yourself that you manifest into writing.. perhaps you could give it pictures? this is something that i am still trying to do myself.. to try and put a face on the poem that you can see.. it would do well to consider the inclusion of well thought -out metaphorical descriptions ?

(im not usually a critique- er, but you asked for it)

Liked what EagleScorpion wrote.
There is nothing wrong with the free verse, but thoughts carried to paper in this way can sometimes seem disjointed...unfinished.
Write your feelings, in all the colors and textures...free verse is art, and thoughts like this are an art to convey.
Liked the content.
