This is a pretty old one but I'de love to hear what you all think. My body is still but my mind races, with thoughts that take me a thousand places. I'm fighting for life the truth is dispensed, and I know its life I'm fighting against. Living in a world with hope lit so dim, thats separated into us and them. My heart is crying but my eyes are dry, just because I have no tears left to cry. I have lived with love to keep myself sane, but I know its love that causes my pain. All my fears take over when all my hope goes, the last pedal falls from my hearts crimson rose. My heart is broken when I hear the news, of people being misled and abused. And when the night has come upon my heart, my pain's end will come and my peace will start. ~ali 2Good |

I enjoyed this very very very much. For some reason I got the sign of you being hopeful, rather than hopeless. As if the ending says that you'll be filled with peace soon, or was I wrong? Anyway, great poem. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Hello again. Looking at this poem I see one thing I'd like to comment on, and that's the incredible flow. Suffice it to say this poem has incredible flow. However I found that the third to last stanza was a bit ineffective in the flow, it was the one speed bump that kept me back when I read this through the first time. I think that the first line could do with a revision (shortening, perhaps?) Just my humble opinion. ~Allan Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. |
