A Day with Jake

by The Queen of Spades   Mar 28, 2007


In your arms
There is security
Though I know
It is not real
Like Alice in Wonderland
I'm on drugs and
Everything seems fine--at first
Then it all madly gets
Out of whack
I try to believe
That it is love
When you look into my eyes
But its a glaze
Without meaning
We can laugh
We can talk
We can trip
We can touch
But no matter how special
How precious
These moments seem to be
They are not real
Just minutes drifting by
Just another day
A day with you

    I didn't see much rhythm in this poem but that's quite alright the poem was still a good one

  • Nice poem. It flowed well. I enjoyed reading this.

    'In your arms
    There is security
    Though I know
    It is not real
    Like Alice in Wonderland'

    Those were my favourite lines.

    Good job 5/5

    I usually favor rhyming but you pulled off impressing me without it :) AGAIN! Why isn't this a 5.0? ... anyways, I really enjoyed reading this but I don't quite understand... You are with someone you don't want to be with? You love someone who doesn't love you back? .. Well you did a great job whether or not I can understand it :) I really liked this part:

    In your arms
    There is security
    Though I know

    Like Alice in Wonderland

    Lovely Job

    The metaphor is great. it's my favorite part in this poem. the metaphor is an amazing connection. i find it funny that little kids are being introduced to sex and drugs at a young age. ppl are so blind.

    as for the poem, i'm not liking this jake guy. and if my brain was really ticking, id write more.
    4/5

    nice job.

    Aww.....that was really sweet yet a tiny bit sad at times.
    The poem had raw emotion & really gave the reader vivid images in their mind.

    "We can laugh
    We can talk
    We can trip
    We can touch"

    ^ Those were my favorite lines, they sound so adorable. Wonderful job, keep it up! 5/5
