Comments : Useless.

    by Poet on the Piano

    "Useless thoughts create this mindset of negativity
    where nothing serves an understandable purpose."

    These two lines were great for the opening, after the end of that last line, I took a moment to ponder on your words.

    "Rage unravels onto those close to my heart; accidentally."

    Very powerful line, I could feel the intenseness of your thoughts.

    "Eventually pushed to the limit of failure; wanting to give up."

    First line was good, uniquely worded and grabbed my attention. I felt the second line was a bit plain, you could be more elaborate or just state it more creatively. If you know what I mean.

    "exchange that expired troublesome life and start anew,
    without stumbling over constant pessimism that blocks
    the road to success."

    Well-said Temps , this is very strong and creates a atmosphere and mood for the reader.

    "Imagining, dreaming, wishing
    upon those falling stars for improvement yet--
    negativity plagues my mind once again..."

    Great usage of "plagues" here, how perfectly have you described this.

    "gaining nothing in the end.
    I'M Useless."

    How sad this ending is, I didn't really like the "M" being capitalized, but that is just me. I am ocd about those things!

    5/5 from me, although I am not that much into reading sad poems lately, as they just bring me down, this poem portrayed your feelings and the meaning was eminent.

    Well worth the read, take care now!

    It is sad to think that you or any other young person would feel useless. Every human being has so much to give to the world and we should never doubt that. Well done.

    "negativity plagues my mind once again...
    gaining nothing in the end.
    I'M Useless. "
    ^I love! (: that was exquisite. very great closure to the poem.

    though I'd criticize your title, it did fit the poem pretty well.
    Well done temps.
    write on =)

    You are the only one who can make it happen for you, Temps..
    I could tell you a thousand things and most of it could be of use...but the point is that noting will really help you until you are ready for it.
    There is an old Asian saying that says that when the student is ready, the master will appear. So I hope this kind and gentle student will be ready for that lesson soon.

    Life is so short sweet girl...try to get out all you can;)

    God bless:)

    5/5 Ingrid

    I could kick you. Useless...is never a word you should use to describe yourself. This was such a good poem coming from such a good and IMPORTANT person. I hope you know that you are very speical to me and I heart you lots. I'd be a wreck if something ever happened to you. Put a smile on dear. These poems don't fit you at all. Where's that Temps that writes about flowers, I want her to come back. I love you hun. *huggles* Nik

    You did a great job of venting, or releasing your pent up emotions. Words that intensified each feeling.
    Well written
