    Apart from the minor spelling error "live" - "lives", i think that the use of pronouns in this poem carries the flow really well i havnt read any poems on here which explore in this yet nice work youll set a trend :d xxx alex xxx

    It was a wonderfully expressed piece.
    the way you expressed the love of
    one thing, you also showed the hate
    of another. nicely penned piece. 5/5

    Unique, Really unique and different. Writing a poem about two different teachers and how they acted and treated you differently. I liked it alot to tell you the truth. This could be seen as a metaphor for something else too which is interesting and has now got me thinking. Well done on writing a piece which was far from cliche. ~mel

    I really truely ... LOVE this poem. It was magneificent. I really liked how you switched from the two.. again just capitalize that first word of each line.

    This is my all time favorite part:

    When you showed me noise
    Silence would drown it out

    Your flow and rhyming was nearly flawless. The only thing that interupted it was:

    hopelessness

    it's such a long word for this poem. find a shorter one ;)

    Overall

    Excellent

    5/5

    Okay. This is BEAUTIFUL.

    Original and unique, and produces some really thought provoking questions for the reader.

    Flow was shaky in a just one or two places, but other than that this is truly a beautiful write and wonderful read.

    Beautiful job. I do think you could extend this poem ... it felt unfinished in my opinion. Other then that it flowed flawlessly and was a great read. Well done *5/5*

    Ooh nice lol i got reminded of the 'good cop, bad cop' sorta thing although it did seem to me that you were repating your self and not only the first and last stanza's

    It is very rare on this site to find original poems but this is one of them. I love the way that it is built on a constrast between the two 'characters'. The first/last stanza particularly stands out for me and the rhyme really works in this poem. The only (minor) problem that I can see is that the word 'hopelessness' seems to be too long for the line and throws the rhythm off a bit. However, this is not terribly important and overall it's a great poem. Well done! 5/5

    This was almost probably the best poem out of all the ones I wrote so far. It's amazing how two people can teach you the opposites of things. I loved this poem soo much. It was very interesting to hear how these two people tought you differently. The repeating of the first stanza as your last was amazing. I loved that unique twist. :)

    Great work, 5/5.

    I like the contrast of both teachers,
    the flow was great
    makes the reader feel torn, not shure waether to be happy for the teachings of one teacher, or sad for the teachings of another, lol

    this was really good

    Excellent I must... very unique and very creative... I liked the way you have described the two opposite things so wonderfully...

    thats reality of life... we always meet people who can show us two opposite sides...

    wonderfully written...
    keep writing...
