Secret smile

by HaileyHelen   Nov 23, 2007


A secret smile
Lies within my heart
It's masked by my pain
But, in my heart
It shall remain

A secret smile
Lies within my soul
It's masked by agony
But, in my soul
It shall forever be

A secret smile
Lies within my eyes
It's masked by my insecurity
But, in my eyes
It shall stay with me

A secret smile
Lies within my dreams
Its masked by my past
But, in my dreams
It shall last

    A little too much repetition here. It got boring after the first two stanza's because you could predict exactly what the following would say.
    And I'm not the biggest fan of the word "but" used in poetry, so when it's used over and over again it brings the poem down a little.

    Other than that. This was also a little cliche, "my soul is in agony." you hear about that a lot. Instead of saying it is, why not show the reader why it is through your vocabulary and phrases. Though, it takes a while to build that up. Reading more poetry will help it :)
    Everything in this poem seemed to be painful. Just with different words. Pain and agony are the same thing etc.

    Althouuuugh this was still decent, the imagery created wasn't that bad, and the flow was good (I think due to the repetition you have within this, it's expected and therefore flows). Also, the emotions you have underneath these words are great, with a little more experience I'm sure they'll be mind boggling.
    Good job with this. Keep writing, 4/5
