Running in place, While hiding his face. Never winning, Always losing. Going nowhere fast, While looking to the past. Trying to forget, Always remembering. Fronts are falling down, Watch them hit the ground. Pressing on, Never gaining. His world seems bleak, The stakes too steep. Never winning, Always losing. |

Thats sad, and I hope it's not about you. The saddness is what made it such a good poem. Try doing some more complicated rymes, to make it a little more spellbinding. That is the only thing i see that needs improvement! "Sticks and stones will break my bones, |

palmerj, I really enjoyed your poem, And dont worry, and dont be sad. You will start winning, and not losing. You wait and see.. Things will turn around.. Just keep your head up, and believe in yourself. And that my friend, Is a winner in my eyes. And im sure everyone here thinks that you are a winner too. I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait. |
