Why is it that people only seem to read sad cutter poems?

How can I make it so people want to read and comment on my work? Do I have to start to write uber-depressing poetry? I mean I'm a little sick of feeling ignored here.

hey i know how you feel i felt the same way at first. well i will comment on your poems ok.

Misery loves company thats all, i think i heard somewhere that now a days more people are depressed and unhappy... why i dont know, but i think its true...back in the old days it wasnt common at all to be depressed and commit suicide or even want to kill yourself... now a days its pretty common..... ill try to get to reading your poems.... its good to know that there's someone who isnt depressed beyond belief... go you!

I write depressing poetry becuse it revils my pain. And all ppls have different reason why they do. I belive you just always look at the better hafe of everything.Or maybe u have pain but loose it someother way as in talking to some one. Cheak my poems out some time sry if there not happy poems

I tend to get ignored as well. My best poem only has 12 comments and a lot only have 1. I'd be more than willing to read, vote, and comment on yours if you would return the favor as well.
