"But this is my destiny,
to be that one outcast. The raindrop
in the desert..trying to last. "

You have a unique taste in writing. The individualism you convey through your work is one that commands my complete and undivided attention.

this is a 5 for its uniqueness. Most impressive indeed Nik.

Very nice. You captured how I feel sometimes, the raindrop in the desert trying to last.

Nik as I have said before I love your poetry and you did a good job with this poem. I often feel like a raindrop in the desert trying to last. Good job and keep writing.

I loved the whole idea of you being the raindrop in the desert trying to last. It is a very powerful, strong line that is easy to relate to & just overall a unique statement. Awesome work.

The title made me curious and I am glad I stopped to read this piece, you have done a nice job, I like your descriptions and the flow of it all. It read nicely and I think we can all relate to it in some manner. Great work.

What a wonderful piec you have penned. The imagery and word choices are awesome.

I've always been the rock
among diamonds never knowing
how to shine. Shimmer, glitter, sparkle
then I'm out of sight. But this is my destiny,
to be that one outcast. The raindrop
in the desert..trying to last.

I really loved this closing stanza. Wonderful ending to a very unique poem. Your words painted such a clear picture for the readers mind.
Excellent job!

I love the way u write. The last lines I'm this is one of the best words of expression I have seen in a long time I love this

This poem was amazing. However, I'm not sure I liked the way it was written...when I read it..it felt weird the way you had written it...but when I look past that...it's an amazing poem!

A poem about lonliness, and the need to be unique, and the failure of trying to be so. Liked the idea, but the poem was a bit off. The lines cut, this time, was disturbing the poem from start to end. I didn't feel like it was much of a poem, but many words forming phrases together. I can't say I didn't enjoy reading it though, and although the non-rhyming and broken lines concept, I still think the idea is a unique one. 4/5
