No Explanation

Lets pretend that you don't exist
Lay on your back and die
Close your eyes and picture something new
Whisper to yourself as usual since you can't make others understand
Bring up the past as usual since its all you know

I'll wait in the darkness for you
Wait for you to come home
I'll wash away all your ailments
As you've been hurting for so long
I'll kiss each wound better with my pure un hated breath
Then I'll lay you down to sleep in peaceful death.

    First of all I'd like to tell you that I think you should work on the flow abit because this poem didn't flow that smoothly, but it's not as bad as it may sound.

    I like the fact that your poem has two part and the first shows a different emotional situation than the second one does, which had me quite captivated. The first seems to be filled with disappointment, hurt and sorrow, while the second one feels like desperate hope and need. I like the structure of the second stanza quite well. Overall I think this is a well written poem with heartfelt emotions, but it could be even better if the flow was smoother.

      Hi,

      Thank you for your comment I appreciate it, as for the flow of the poem this was exactly how I was feeling. I just wanted to get it out and wasn't really concerned with its layout. I'm not really a major poet I just write things in my head. Thank you for taking the time to read it anyway.
