what you did to me |

I sit in my room tonight, Bewildered, and confused, You said you didn’t want a relationship, But now you are changing your own rules. Its hard to grasp the facts, Of what you really want. Am I just another guy, Or am I really who you want. I wish I knew what to say, When I spoke to you tonight, You told me what I hated to hear, Now I wonder why. I liked you like no other, You say you like me to, But if that is true, Then why can't I be with you? Its hard to grab my feelings, With this paper and this pen, It only scratches the surface, And the rest is left to bleed below. So my soul drips onto this sheet, In an emotional despair, You made my heart break into pieces, That is something I can not repair. After you did this to me I still live to see your face, Because if I don't then I will not survive, Because noone can take your place. Once again, I do not think this is that great of a poem, but I want to know what you think, so let me know. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." |

Its hard to grab my feelings, With this paper and this pen, It only scratches the surface, And the rest is left to bleed below. even though this threw off the rhyming flow, it was my favorite stanza, very good metaphor. I really liked this piece. Although I can't say I'm going through this right now exactly, I've been through it many times..it's a sucky place to be. Don't let things get you down! They can only go up from here. AIM-beatufu1tragidy |

And the rest is left to bleed below. This line was somewhat off. I loved the idea of this poem,that they are chaning the rules and all that. This was very good, |

Well I'm going to be grumpy gus and complain about a bunch of stupid little things so please forgive me ahead of time. My excuse is that it is late at night and I get grumpy at night... “Its hard to grasp the facts, Of what you really want. Am I just another guy, Or am I really who you want.” (both “want”(s) seemed a little close together for my tastes, but I’m picky about stupid things like that…) "Its hard to grab my feelings, With this paper and this pen, It only scratches the surface, And the rest is left to bleed below."(As it has been pointed out before, this last line throws the whole thing off) "So my soul drips onto this sheet, In an emotional despair, You made my heart break "(I don't think that the "into pieces" needs to be there, but that is just me) "into pieces, That is something I can not repair." uhh... Yah, told you it was little stuff, take it as you will... "After you did this to me I still live to see your face, Because if I don't then I will not survive, Because noone can take your place." I liked this part best out of the whole poem for some reason. I think because it seemed to match the poem just right instead of losing it at the end like some poems do... Thanks for sharing/listening, I'm looking forward to reading more of your work!

Thanks for all the replies guys, and thank you very much for pointing all that stuff out to me stargal. And I just thought that I would let everyone I understand that the line "And the rest is left to bleed below" kinda throws off the whole poem, but I just felt that that was how it was, and I couldnt think of anything to replace it. Thank you all! |

I thought you did a nice job with this poem, my only complaint would be in the second stanza the two "Of what you really want" and "Or am I really who you want" sounded a bit weird being that close together. But other than that, I enjoyed it. ~Alli~ |
