The Darkness

by tyler steinman   Jun 5, 2007


As I sit in my room,
Anger creeps upon me.
Hatred, for everything.
I only yearn to be free.

I hate everyone,
Even my friends.
All that i have,
And all you have too

I sit and i wait,
For someone,
I hear no sound,
So i just wait.

I listen to music,
Hard metal,
Hating my life,
because of you.

The darkness in my soul,
Wanting to come out,
I hold it inside,
For a time when i can lash out.

    Hmm, you have some raw talent. :) If you just file it around the edges you will have an amazing piece of work. For one, USE PUNCUATION! That's like the number 1 rule in writing poetry. It shows that you care about your poetry... by making it not only sound good but look good. For example:

    i write my feelings
    through this pen
    understand the meaning
    of my world within

    It sounds good, yes. But I doesn't please the eye and have the same effect.

    I write my feelings,
    Through this pen.
    Understand the meaning,
    Of my world within.

    Looks much better. Also, try not to use "I" as a begining of sentence... it's just bad. :) Okay... Lets see... I think to spice it up a little ... add rhyme. For example: your first stanza:

    I sit in my room
    I feel angry
    Hating my life
    Every day of it

    Try:

    As I sit in my room,
    Anger creeps upon me.
    Hatred, for everything.
    I only yearn to be free.

    Make your sentences a wee bit longer and use a wider vocabulary. And you will become an amazing writer Tyler.

    I'm adding you to my favorites, not because you asked me to, but because I believe that you can become a great poet. I can't wait to see your poetry improve!

    Excellent Job For A Beginning Poet
