where my heart is

0 posted 2006-05-31 01:07 AM




--very repetitive--i know....this is really old tho....--


where do I go,
when i don’t know this road,
when the ones I’ve known the longest,
are the ones that don’t know this?

where do i go,
when my life's full of unknown,
when the one i need,
is the one who's presence is not guaranteed?

where do i go,
when i don’t want to show,
when my old path is not lit,
and i don’t know where ive been?

where is my heart in all this pain
why do i keep resulting in vain,
where am I when my heart's being slain,
and why does my life have this stain?

where in this world do i go,
when my road doesn't show?
When an invisible knife,
slays my desire for life?

Hey,

It's not really repetitive, in fact i rather liked that it repeated that one line. For me it kind of brought the whole poem together.

I also liked the last stanza in this, the part about the knife was awesome!

Also the questions in this, were rather enjoyable to read, cause i can relate to many of them, having had/having the same ones myself.

For the most part i thought the flow was rather good, except for on the 3rd stanza. I felt that it was a little stiff there. You might want to read this poem out loud to yourself a couple of times and see what you come up with. Cause, sometimes that helps to show where the flow is off a little. At least for me it does...

Great write on this one, even though it's one of your "old" writes, i enjoyed seeing it.

yeah on the third stanza i kinda though alittle awkward. caus it was pain\vain\slain\stain. the idea is really good. just tha stanza sounded like there was nothing else and so those words were used/

the fourth stanza seems alittle out there but good.

and the rest of the poem is really good. i liked the third stanza , the idea of it.
