Final Red Tear

by cici89   Jul 18, 2009


My heart ripped from my chest,
Frail, bleeding so much within,
Repulsive words flung my way,
My yells quicky turn into screams,

My life shattered by the relentless pain,
The screams so quiet only I can hear,
Camouflaged from every breathe,
Burrowed deep in this chamber of mine,

Death glides closer second by second,
Coming all to slowly,
Burning pain engulfs me with every tear,
Every tear I cant shed,

It wretches beneath this fragile face,
Hidden so deep,
I cant even see,
Lost in a world of agony and heartache,

The isolation comes to an closing,
As does everything someday,
This blistering sting comes to a halt,
As this final red tear assuredly stands still

    My heart ripped from my chest,
    Frail, bleeding so much within,

    *This line was alittle confusing. I would maybe reword it and say "Frail, so much blood within" something like that.*

    Repulsive words flung my way,
    My yells quicky turn into screams,

    *I like how you said "repulsive' I've never seen it used to describe words. And in the second line you forget a "l" in quickly.*

    My life shattered by the relentless pain,
    The screams so quiet only I can hear,

    *I don't think you need "the" at the beginning of the second line. Seems too wordy to me. I would just start it with "Screams"*

    Camouflaged from every breathe,
    Burrowed deep in this chamber of mine,

    *I love your word choice here. Very creative*

    Death glides closer second by second,
    Coming all to slowly,
    Burning pain engulfs me with every tear,
    Every tear I cant shed,

    *This part was sad :( *

    It wretches beneath this fragile face,
    Hidden so deep,
    I cant even see,
    Lost in a world of agony and heartache,

    *This stanza was flawless. Your diction is amazing and I love the varied syntaz as well. Your emotions are really clear here*

    The isolation comes to an closing,

    *I would change this to "Isolation comes to a closing"*

    As does everything someday,
    This blistering sting comes to a halt,
    As this final red tear assuredly stands still

    *Wow...what a sad ending. I think you did a great job of expressing your pain throughtout the poem. Very nice job. Keep it up hun. Nik :) *
