Sorrow
Pain
Laughter
Joy
These are my ups and downs
Surrounded
Cared for
Alone
And unhappy
This is my contrast
Scared
Unaware
Hiding
Fake
This is my reality

This is very unusual.  Your choice of words is splendid.

This couldn't be any better.  Very good work.

Nicely done here. I liked the choice of wording and the basic overall message.
I hope to see you post more around here.

Lil Cherry~
  I too liked the choice of words and the diction that they carried but I think that you should try to maybe add another section, this one with a little more exact words, the words you chose were wonderful but not original.  it is like when people rhyme with sad and mad....it has been done.  you are not cliche` and I really like the concept of this poem, I just think you should put a few choice words in.  Consider it.

thanks for the pointer, it was a quick poem so i think it's lacking some of the depth of poems that take me a lil longer (not that i ever really spend a long time on a poem) but i thought it was worth posting none the less.

uh, cherish has been around quite a bit.  if you read the posts, you'd realise that.

anyways, i did enjoy this one.  powerful words you used.  i'm just unsure as to why you decided to capitalize every one of them.  any particular reason?

oh, one more thing.  you only need to hit the submit button once.  if you're unsure as to whether or not it posted, simply highlight and copy everything in the reply field and close the window.  open up a new window and veiw the topic.  if it didn't post, try again by simply pasting what you wrote before.

that is if your server is a little slow tonight.

Your reality is a plethora of emotion, lil cherry.  You see and express yourself clearly..

Your capitalization of each line is the proper way in the poetic world.  There's no need for any further reasoning.  It works as well in free verse as it does in structured formats.  As a matter of fact, I think that it emphasizes the magnitude of your feelings in this piece.

As for submitting a post more than once, our software is designed to prevent its happening.  If you should happen to unintentionally hit the submit button twice, you'll receive a "Been there - Done that" error message.  No need to worry...

thanks for clearing that up nan.  i come from a very different world.  heh.

it's just that i had seen about three of her posts accidentally doubled, so i thought i should point it out.  that's all.

thank-you very much for the compliments.  my computer has been messing up a lot and i think that explains some of the double posts, i don't beleive that i actually hit the button twice although it is possible it's just that it's having problems going through. thanks tho.

powerful
unique
well-penned
This is my opinion of your poem.

I really enjoyed the style you used in this write,
and you did a great job of expressing the emotions.
Well done.
