Moving On

by Annaam   Jun 27, 2009


No matter how hard you try,
The tears don't stop.

You think that you've moved on,
That you don't care anymore,
And that you're okay...

But you're still standing there...
Wondering how it all happened.

How something so right,
Could turn out to be so wrong?

You know you tried,
Gave it your all.

But, in the end,
It was just not meant to be.

As realization hit you,
You know, once and for all now.

Moving on is the best...
There will be someone worth caring for.

So let go...
Helped by those who really love you, you can do it...
You can move on.

    This was a really cute poem in my opinion, and perhaps that isn't what you'd want to hear. Though I think you need more of a pattern in this piece, because as I read it it seemed more like a monologue. But the flow you added in near the beginning, gave the monologue like poem a nice touch and more easily read near the beginning. Once it reached the 7th stanza:

    "As realization hit you,
    You know, once and for all now."

    Your poem's flow just disappeared, and there was no scheme in it to begin with. I liked the idea of free verse in the beginning, but it needs more. Not so much as short chopped up thoughts to make it more like a poem. I liked the idea of this poem also, and I loved the expression in it as well. Especially the last two lines, it ended your poem beautifully.

    I think that you should either follow a pattern with the number of lines in your stanzas if your going to allternate or keep them all the same count. Because it is throwing the reader off. Also this poem is very cliche. What about this topic is unique to you? I think with some syllabols it would do wonders for this poem.
