pbfrontmanvdp Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 [SIZE=3][I]When will it end[/I] [/SIZE] Today is just another ordinary day When will this pain finally go away? Isnt it just hypocritical Possibly even cynical Im talking about our society How frightened I am by everyone's dishonesty Truces are made and then they are broken Is this just God flipping a random token? Is our fate sadly based on chance? What I see on the news that i dare not glance The bloodshed and torment I cant bare the misery Why do we always have to repeat history? Its a disgrace how society handles these situations How many more lives must be taken? Until we realize this is not why we were created To be full of possession and of hatred Im not only saying this for my sake For if I have children is this their fate? Will they have to suffer this constant battle? To achieve peace which shouldn't be a hassle I don't want to keep this in the back of my mind Knowing there is no hope for mankind For with these eyes to have seen such sin Only hoping my string comes to an early end ~Tuminaro~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzureWolf Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Whoa, this one got no replies? It's short, and has a great flow. Wonder what was the turn-off... Anyway, you've done an excellent job conveying the point of the poem, as well as retaining a complete, central focus. What's more, you did it all while rhyming, which is no small feat. It doesn't even seem like the rhyming scheme inhibited the poem. That is, while the rhyming helps with the "flow" of the poem, it certainly did not compromise any other part, such as the wording and focus. Wonderful work. Highly recommended to all. Plus, something about today's world (right?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
