Someone say something Anything at all Heart start beating again Silence cuts through like a knife Someone do something Stop the questions in my head Give me the answers The questions rage like fire Help me, please I'm dying inside Let me know he'll be back To hold me once more My heart is breaking My head is pounding My voice strains to call his name My ears ache for his voice I want I need I cry I hurt I love My heart breaks..and dies "Superiority to fate is difficult to learn. 'Tis not conferred by any, but possible to earn"--Emily Dickinson-"Superiority of Fate" |

I can totally relate to your poem right now. Keep putting your feelings onto paper like chic says- it does help, even if it's hard to do. Keep up the good work. "Sometimes people care too much. I think it's called love." -Winnie the Pooh |

scg: i love the way this poem starts off, but i somehow feel that something is missing in the last stanza... it becomes repetitive and i think that causes it to lose some of its profound meaning... perhaps consider variating the lines in the last stanza (even just a little bit)... i think it would add a lot more to an already wonderful poem... here's an example of what i was thinking of: I want ...need I cry ...hurt I love ...fear My heart breaks ...and without remorse comes Death. (just a suggestion -- you do what you feel makes the poem the most meaningful to you) sincerely, jerome the boy with the catholic saxophone A savage place! as holy and enchanted As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon-lover! ~Coleridge |
