The Day He Won't Foeget

by Bradley Peter   Mar 15, 2007


I saw him strolling along,
Taking life as it came,
Thought of how I'd changed,
And how he'd stayed the same,

In reality he's a child,
Yet, he pretends he's more,
Though I'm a child myself,
I don't seem child-like anymore,

He stole that child inside,
Quicker than in a blink,
And continues his life happily,
And doesn't stop to think,

Doesn't regret his actions,
Doesn't even give them thought,
He's only real worry,
Was that of getting caught,

But of course he's scot free,
He managed that somehow,
And he was almost arrested,
But that's all over with now,

But he really should worry,
Because I haven't forgot,
And when we meet again,
Breath - he shall not,

    For the most part the poem was brilliant. However there were a few hiccoughs in the rhythm. Just minor spelling errors that caused me to double take. In the fourth stanza the third line you meant his instead of he's. And perhaps on the last line use semi-colons instead of a dash. It gives the reader a more prolonged hesitation and allows them to follow the flow from previous parts of the poem. Other than that, I really really liked this poem. Great job.
