Won The Game

by Cherry   Mar 9, 2007


They wont leave me alone
They have no heart but only bare stone

They bare no shame
They carry no name

They never play fair
They don't care

They don't want you quite dead
They never go back on what they have said

They will not answer your question as to WHY
They will never permit you to cry

It is they who bare no name
That have won the game.

    I liked this poem, but I'd just like to suggest a few things, I think that if you didn't have 'bare' in the second line of the first stanza, it may flow better. In the second line of the forth stanza, I think the line should read 'And they do not care' instead of 'They don't care', to give the stanza a better rhythm. And lastly, in the second line of the forth stanza, I think that perhaps it may have been better to say 'they've said' instead of 'they have said'. I'm sorry for maybe seeming bossy or controling, but I felt I should share my thoughts, also, that's what I think this site is meant to be about. Anyway, on to brighter things, I thought your poem was great. I loved the idea of the nameless villains. I liked the two-lined stanzas, and the darkness within them. Also, I think it was the perfect length. All in all I thought this was a good piece of work, so I've given it a 4/5.
