Would You?

by Tripp   Jan 14, 2009


Would you hear my screams, as from my mouth they leap
would you know that my last dying sounds, are yours to keep
would you care, that to save you I sacrificed me
Would you appreciate my forfeiture? Would you see?

I hope so, I hope that you know
I pray that you do, pray that it's so
I want you to believe, my love for you
I need you to see, that my oaths are true

For you I have given in
given in, and given up
This life I was livin' in
I have given in, and given up

But as my blood betwixt your fingers cried
my sands of time ran out, and so I died

    This poem is excellent, your chioce of how you structured your wording, I believe added more depth to the poem. The flow was very good however the overall body of the poem seemed a little off how about something like this -

    Hmm I think that's going to look ok I cant really tell untill I post the comment ^^
    But really to be honest it's an enjoyable piece anyway which I did enjoy reading.

    I have to say the flow was a tad off and i think you were writing some things just to rhyme, remeber you dont always have to rhyme. i have a few flow promblems myself. however it was beautiful when it come to meaning and i know where your coming from.

    You are the meanest person i know

    I hate poem that make my cry and now i can't stop.

    your poem was really beautiful and even though the beat kept threwing me off I was able to capture the meaning you were trying to express.

    thanks for the read
