This is a poem I wrote some time ago...I don't really like it, but some friends of mine thought it was pretty good...well, what do you think??

something i will never have

in my life there’s only rain
no sun shines there
for I’m alone

all my joy in life has gone
when you went away
when you left me
desperate and alone

i cry all night
such bitter tears
i weep all day
haunted by my fears

and now I recognized
that all I want
Is something I already had
but gave away
YOU

how will i laugh tomorrow
when i can't even smile today

I liked this a lot but in my personal opinion you should have started out with a rhyme scheme if you were going to structure your poem around one.  Only my opinion, though     I can relate to the content... I've done this before.  Keep up the good work and keep sharing!   I'll be looking forward to more!!

Yeah you also have uneven stanzas.  But it is a good poem and I can relate.  The blue phoenix thing is my name.  It's my writing title.  When I handwrite poems I sign them blue phoenix.  The name has a lot of meaning to me even though I don't live up to the implication.  Also two of my best friends and I writeback and forth to each other using our writing titles.

I don't know if today is a good day, or if yesterday was, or if tomorrow will be, but I'd like to think so.

I love this!! You had it, but gave her away--this happens a lot to me, I don't realize how much the person means to me until they walk away!!
