It's Your Turn To Fix It

by Jaime   Sep 3, 2006


I am still not ready to apologize
For snapping earlier today
You just acted like things were normal
Well guess what baby, we're not okay

Sure, I'm sorry about some things
Like the fact that you're so insecure
I'm sorry you keep getting mad at me
But my intentions were good, I can assure

I'm sorry you don't like to talk about it
When things just aren't going right
I'm sorry your video game is more important
I just hope it keeps you warm at night

I'm sorry that it's always me
Who has to go out and make things better
Maybe I could see that you cared
If you just sent me an e-mail letter

I know I shouldn't have been so harsh
And you have every right to be mad
But if I matter to you even a little
Then you better fix what we had

I really hope that I'll hear from you soon
And I hope we can solve this still
But this time my dear, it's you who must work
Unfortunately, I doubt that you will

    This was a sad poem. I liked the poem, but I thought that in this one the rhyming scheme was forced. I can tell that you did put a lot of emotion into it, especially anger. But I think that it could have been better. I can relate to the emtions that you are going through in this poem, because I have been down that same road myself. When we write it is good to use that emotion, but sometimes we are so emotional that we tend to force the words out onto the paper or computer screen, whatever. Whenever you get to emotional when writing you should just relax, take a few deep breaths, and let the words flow from the pen, like the water flows in the river. Don't get me wrong I liked the poem, and it held emotion and all, but I don't believe it was your best. I hope my comment dosen't upset you, and I know that you would rather that I be truthful with you. I make the same mistakes sometimes myself and I would appreciate it, (if you ever read one of my poems)that you be truthful with me as well. I'm giving you a 4/5 because it was good, but it wasn't excellent. I think that you should consider this as your first draft, rewrite it with more dedication and let the words flow.

    Love

    Excellent pooem. Rhyming was great from start to finish and so was the flow. One thing I would change though would be to include more desciptive words.(just a suggestion) Anyway I really like the last stanza, I think it closes the poem really well. [5/5] Keep it up! && Take care!
