When Will This All End?

by Courageous Dreamer   Mar 15, 2009


Conquering the impossible..
thats what it will take this time.

When will this all end?

The end of this catastrophic crisis,
sadly is not near, its nowhere in sight.

When will this all end?

Praying that everything gets resolved,
with any faith, hope, that remains...

When will this all end?

Communication slim, words unspoken,
desperate to find a conclusion.

When will this all end?

Looking for reassurance,
for someone to tell me it'll be okay...

And an answer to this burning question:
when will this all end?

    It's a shame to see so many 'sad poems' from you lately Temps. I hope you're okay.

    The repetition here is slightly off-putting on first glance. Especially since you used it in the title, but it works with the poem I think. I don't think you need it as frequently. I think if you altered the form, it might communicate better.

    'Conquering the impossible..
    thats what it will take this time.'

    You used strong language to convey what you were trying to say. You're precise in your vocabulary. There's nothing more to comment on here. It's a strong opening.

    'The end of this catastrophic crisis,
    sadly is not near, its nowhere in sight.'

    I think if you placed these two couplets together, and took out the first 'When will all this end?' It'd be stronger, but that's just my opinion. Catastrophic crisis was a great phrase.

    'Praying that everything gets resolved,
    with any faith, hope, that remains...'

    I think you need a conjunction in the second line, to string the sentence together, it reads a bit none-sensical. What you're getting across here is great though. You have a way with sad poems.

    'Communication slim, words unspoken,
    desperate to find a conclusion.'

    This stanza was particularly strong. I liked the first line. Nothing much to comment on here except I liked your alliteration. I don't know if it was intentional but it worked.

    'Looking for reassurance,
    for someone to tell me it'll be okay...

    And an answer to this burning question:
    when will this all end?'

    We all want answers sometimes, we all have something that we need solving. Maybe there's only one person who can stop it. The repetition at the end was nice, but I think you should double up the couplets and lessen the repetition to make it more strong.

    Good work Temps :)

    Things will work themselves out in the end as Ingrid and TJ have said. It may not seem like it now, but with time they will.

    Looking for reassurance,
    for someone to tell me it'll be okay...
    We can all tell you that things will be okay and we know it will but until you can see that our reassurance it just that. Good job this this write and I like the form you have used to write. 5/5

    Temps,

    Some people/ situations never change...but for you the sun will shine again, I am very, very sure of that. You are just a victim and one day this will all be a thing of the past, mark my words:)

    Good work on this format, stepping out of the box:)

    * tight hugs*

    5/5 Ingrid
