    You said you'll come, You said you'll stay; you said you'll never go away.
How come I'm here without you,alone without your love?
       you're in my mind in a distance far away.
What happened to I'll stay and never go away,
    I'm alone in a hole surrounded with darkness.
Without you I have forgotten,forgotten all the lies forgotten you.
   I'm numb in side lost in my mind.
You're gone, gone away, gone out of my mind out to stay.

I should have added more to my poem but It came right from the top of my head and I was looking for a pen to write it down and for got half of it and added more to it.

I think the rhyming was too repitive personally. It seems likes its half an idea or just one small idea. You should add more.

basically agree with the above. it was nice but should be longer.

Hmm… I actually liked the length of this poem the way it is.

With your permission wwzwlmd8 I would like to offer a bit of a critique? I noticed that you didn’t have a critique message but also saw what the others said and I was wondering if it would bother you. Just thought I’d ask before putting my big feet in my mouth again!

Hi,

Thanks for accepting my opinion on your poem, just be warned I usually don’t know what I’m talking about, I just pretend I do!

Like I said before, I do like the length, it’s short and to the point but it doesn’t clutter up the poem and lose the meaning like some longer poems are apt to do.

I would add some grammar in this poem though, just the little things, like… well, here’s what I would suggest, as a starter you would want to improve on anything I did because my grammar sucks!

"You said you'll come, You said you'll stay; you said you'll never go away.
How come I'm here without you, alone without your love?
You're in my mind in a distance far away.
What happened to (“) I'll stay and never go away (”)(?)
I'm alone (,) in a hole surrounded with darkness.
Without you I have forgotten, forgotten all the lies (,) forgotten you.
I'm numb in (inside) side (,) lost in my mind.
You're gone, gone away, gone out of my mind (,) out to stay.
"

Mostly it is just little things like that, for some reason grammar is bugging me of late…

The poem itself is good though; maybe a tad bit repetitive in spots but there’s a force behind your words that is lacking in a lot of poems at times.

Anyway, thanks for sharing this piece and listening to my ramblings, it’s been an enjoyable read

I did mean delete the "in" and "side" and make it "inside" instead, I guess I wasn't clear in that though
