Is there a meaning to life?
Is there any Reason to smile?
Is there a reason to cry?
Is living worth the while?

Is anyone real?
Or do they all just pretend?
Will my heart heal?
Or will the hurt never end?

Are promises kept?
Are they all just a lie?
Is there more reason to live?
or more reason to die?

hmm... you're in luck. I don't feel mean enough to really do a good critique. Keep in mind that a rhyming poems usually sounds better with a syllibical pattern though. I'm so glad you started writing poetry. It's great to have someone to discuss it with. V

This was really good! I love the way you wrote it with all questions. Nicely written.

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Nicely done, I liked this. I thought it flowed pretty well.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

The questions that surround us in life.
you've shown your feelings really well
and yes, life is worth it and even more
one day, you'll realize this
all you need to do now is stay strong

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.

These are some tough questions, my friend, and questions that we all ask ourselves at one time or another. You portray these things well, my friend. I hope you shall find your answers soon. Thanks for sharing.

You bring up very good questions in this poem, the kind of questions i think everyone finds themselves asking. This poem really made me think...
