Why.

by kelS;   May 26, 2006


Why can`t they understand?
That I need to go,
can`t they see i need to be back on my own land?
don`t they know i just have to flow?

can`t they tell i hate it here?
i can`t stand it,
they should know i have to disappear,
do they not know i can`t resubmit?

i do not belong,
i cannot stay,
to be here would just be wrong,
i can`t stand another day.

and now i am going,
with out looking back,
i am just going to keep flowing,
even with out the friends i am going to Lack.

    good job once again though!

    It was good! But from what i notice from all of your poems, you never capatalize...and sometimes you leave words out, go slower look at your punctuation, make sure all your words are there! but other then that it was good 4/5

    "i can not stay,"
    [cannot]

    This one wasn't as good as the first. Seems like you were missing a lot of elements. Flow, rhyme and creativity were there, just not great. You need to write a poem that will 'WOW' people. Keep trying, you'll get better.

    Hey, I liked the idea of the poem, but you asked what you could do to make it better? I would say, don't force the rhymes as much, just remember that not every poem has to rhyme and I think it will make it alot better if it's natural.

    Hope that helped,

    I concur with the forced rhyming. Perhaps you might want to try free style as your feelings and thoughts can just be released without attempting to rhyme. I like to "let it out" first, and then look at slight massaging. But whatever style ... don't give up, writing soothes the soul!
