You're on your own......

by XxxBeenThereRockedThatxxX   May 10, 2008


They know how hard it is
Life and it's challenges
One moment you're fine
The next you're in pain
Kinda funny though
The way everything can turn out as perfect as you can get it
Knowing that with one flaw everything can topple down on you in a second
But the real question is
Can you help it?
Sometimes....
But then again here comes the ball hitting you right in the face without warning
You dont know who threw it at you
Who knows.... maybe it was an accident
Maybe the wind blew the ball out of its path
Causing you to fall
Hitting the ground hard
Cry all you want
Plea for help till you lose your voice
But its never gonna help you get back up
You'll drown in your very own tears if you go through life thinkin you're gonna make it as long as someone's there

    The rhythm's off.

    That's easily fixed, though.

    You can keep the syllables close to one another.

    For example:
    The next you're in pain
    Kinda funny though

    Those are same syllables.
    But the next line

    The way everything can turn out as perfect as you can get it

    That just ruined it.

    I pictured..
    Someone talking slowly
    Then, quickly (can't understand the words quickly)

    You can put in punctuation.
    It helps.
    You let the readers know where
    to speed up, slow down on the poem.

    In my opinion. You need to fix your format.

    It's not bad. It's just hard to read.

    I liked this poem. It feels like someone's just talking about something, and it's just whatever thoughts they have. Makes an interesting flow.

    Only thing, is on about 3 of the lines there wasn't enough space, so went to another line. When it does that, it breaks up the flow of the poem. For those parts you might want to try doing something different, different way of saying it, or way to keep thought together.

    Although i usualy prefer poems with stanzas, yours was really good without. there wasnt really a flow but i think it worked really well anyway. overall - a very good poem 5/5
