U know when u write something and it sounds good when you are done,.. but days later it doesn't?
Ya, well.. i feel that way about this poem i just wrote.  If something doesnt rhyme or whatever.. sorry.  
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Forever there has been a world,
Where time is but the single ruler.
Where night and day,
Both dark and bright,
Still are but,
Just finite.

What once was dirt,
Changed to flesh,
Claimed the world,
Like all the rest,
Time however,
Tired of this,
Marched them back,
Into dust.

Now with passing,
We believe,
Live forever,
Much decieved.
Still we are,
But the flesh
and with time,
meet the rest.

Yeah, I have done that with my own poems before.  But this one is very good, the idea you share is very clear, and told so well.  Great job on this one!

I know how you feel when you like a poem one moment then dislike it the next. To be honest, I dislike EVERY SINGLE one of my poems.
So yea, i liked this one though. I thought it rocked.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

this is a really good one
I don't see the reason why you wouldn't love this
i guess we are the worst critics of our own work
If it makes a difference, I think this is one amazing poem
thanks for the share
