Hi and welcome to the forum. I don't usually have much to say on a first post but I have a lkittle here. First, it doesn't really say anything that grabs my interest. The impression is that it's just another boy wants girl he can't have thing. Not that those are bad. There are just too many of them and, for a new one to be interesting, it needs to tell it in a different and interesting way. Second, you are employing imagery but I'm not sure I can appreciate the image of changing channels and lost remotes, at least not in the present context. This is not a bad start. In fact, your use of imagery should be complemented. I just feel that the mixed context doesn't work. Well, hang around and join in on the fun. We do get to see some good poetry here. There are also a lot of good suggestions for improving ones writing skills. Pete |

Thanks for the comments, it's not a guy wants a girl he can't have thing. It was a guy who got royally messed up by girl and she won't leave him alone, always bringing it all back up making him watch it again and again....but for her it was over long ago....if that helps any I really don't know. Yes I see you guys get a lot of good poetry here and any comments to help me improve would be much appreciated. Thanks |

Inioth Before I make any comment I wonder if you'd tell me WHY you are writing? Please don't take offence at me asking, it's just that I want to make sure that I make comments that stand the most chance of being taken notice of by you ). R |

I write cause I feel like writing....a way of venting I guess I write most of my stuff as like I was outside my body looking at myself, always questioning things.... I'm not insulted or offended not everyone will like what I write and I don't expect it, I am probably younger than you I'm only 20 and those poems I posted were from quite a while ago....if that helps I dunno |

"....a way of venting I guess ..." That's great Inioth. If it's a way of venting then you should keep right on writing as you are I think. This poem is a pretty good "vent". And yep, you are certainly younger than me, regrettably . |

Maybe try rewriting in full sentences and see what happens. |
