Stop, Play, Rewind, Pause

by Good Enough   May 9, 2009


My life on pause, and I'm inflicting all these wounds,
Snap another picture of my heart filled with pain
My thoughts ever reentering me, my tears of shadows
Press play once more and get your hurtful game going

Fast forward, rewind, my life is a roller coaster ride
Play, stop flip over once more, pictures of my past
Did you see the pain across my lips with mercy of death
Can you heal me again with that unbearable touch?

Rewind again, see me cry a thousand tears of sorrow
See me raise my chin to the sky and ask for help
But was it really there for me to grasp? no it was not
Hope fell Through my fingers once again and shattered

Stop, play, rewind, pause, no you can not help me
So broken into a million and two sharp little pieces
Forget me, turn it off, I'm not your stupid memory
Break this like you finally broke me cause I'm tired of this show and tell

    by a broken smile with a broken heart is a poets life

    Very unique, interesting, confusing poem. reason why i say it is confusing is because you need punctuations to help the reader distinguish a new thought from an old one. the poem is very painful, and insightful in your thoughts and feelings. i can tell it is a sincere poem because of your diction. i think with a few tweaks this poem can be one of the top ones.

    also the first stanza needs to be reworded. try reading it aloud and see where you need a period. you can tell this by the pauses you make when you read.

    i like the way you play with words. it's risky but it works with this piece. overall i give you 4/5
