Promises [Acrostic]

by BrixGoesxRawr   Mar 13, 2007


Pictures ripped & torn
Reminiscing on the past love
Over-used words; lies
Memories [fading slowly]
Isolating myself - - want to be alone
Sacrifices lost [thrown out the window]
Entire world black & white now
Satisfied; [I bet you are]

    Good use of the form. Most people make the mistake of trying to rhyme acrostics, and when you have the starting letter restriction already, it only makes it harder on yourself to add another restriction.
    I think on the first line "ripped and torn" is a pleonasm. You only need to use one of those words, in which case you may want to substitute a word there.
    I liked your use of language (other than that) and the sarcastic
    ending line was potent, giving the reader a strong sense of emotion to end the poem with.
    Thanks for sharing.

    i love that line.
    Perfect ending

    Beautiful short poem, a little forced but that is something that you rarely can help in an acrostic. You did a well job and i totally LOVE the last line... just... awesome..

    10/5 (5/1 on the last line!)
