Do stars sparkle only at night? or are we too blind to see? An almost supernatural glow befalls the land as the mooon illuminates my sight. I see the forming of the world the beauty made for all to see and i begin to wonder if anything was made for only me I've searched for on one thing to set me apart something that is no one elses through the darkest parts of my mind I've crept over the illusions I have wept I searched in vain finding nothing but lies and incredible pain as parts of my soul were chipped away i lost more of myself by the end of everyday beaten and lost I concluded my quest and began to think i was just one of the rest blinded by my search i didn't see the beauty searching for me even unseen stars still shine now I know that this star is mine she was made for me the beauty made for only me now she owns every part of me -"Poet Nascitar, Non Fit" |

Wow. This was a fantastic piece, my friend. It really was. It's one of the best pieces I've read in a while, for its control of flow and movement within the poem. Maybe it's just me, but if you were to correct the punctuation, I think that would add to the poem. The lack of concrete pauses can be distracting. "something that is no one elses" I might change this line; I find myself stumbling on it. Maybe... "something only I can possess" "i lost more of myself by the end of everyday beaten and lost I concluded my quest and began to think i was just one of the rest" These are great lines. Kickass ending, too. ~Daniel/Titus |

I'm not sure if this is the only poem I've read of yours or not but this was a great piece. I loved the way I could read it without having to stop and think about it. I could read it with a nice steady pace. Wonderful work I hope to read more interesting pieces like this. ~Heather Desire nothing except desirelessness.

This poem is awesome! My only suggestion would be to introduce her earlier in the poem and continue to make her the highlight of it. Whoever she is would deserve to have more than three lines. |
