lea Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 [COLOR=blue] As the angry frustration mixes with heavy pain It builds a pressure I know I cannot contain. I need to let it out, to find a release To let my raging emotions leave me in peace. As I trace designs with my pretty knife I think about my messed up life. I watch the red rise and grow As it becomes a strong flow. I grab some tissues to clean up the mess To make the river flow less As my cuts cry their tears I feel a sense of euphoric fear. I know my cuts will physically spill the secret As I tell myself to keep it. [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaOfChaos Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 [color=deeppink] o.o The suicide poetry, it is everywhere. I really liked the last two lines though, the rhyming and the message are such a simple proclimation of losing it in every possible way, losing control, and losing your sense of sanity. Good stuff. -Karma [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vampire: Ed Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Actually, overall it's a very good poem, all though you could present it a little better perhaps with some punctuation and such. It's not necessary really since it still gets the point across, but it would make it look nicer and probably help the reader determine where someone would pause and such if the words were coming out of their own mouths. Besides that I really don't think the last two lines work together. Everything up until the last two lines flowed well, and fit together nicely but those last two lines leave your poem with a weak ending. So those could be written a little better. Anyway, that's just my opinion, and I feel if you fixed those "problems," or at least the last two lines, it would be near perfect, if not perfect. Aside from the technical stuff this poem expressed a lot of emotion, and it gives you a very good understanding of how much a person's anger can boil over. Good work. I'd say to continue writing poetry, you're very good from what I can make of this one poem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lea Posted January 31, 2004 Author Share Posted January 31, 2004 [COLOR=blue]Yeah, I felt the ending was weak, but I wasn't sure how else to end it. If anyone has any suggestions, I would consider them (Yeah, I am a bit new at poetry...just wait untill I have more expirience) [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more... emotional, let's say, in my perspective. Bye, lealotsofnumbers. :D[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
