missing old friends, i gather. nice metaphor.
holy fuck. dark only says half of it.
i think this has the opportunity for a lot of expansion. there is a lot of story here for so few lines, but there are enough lines used that it either needs to be longer and expanded into a mini-epic, or edited down to a more concise yet potent missive.
i like this and hpoe you will work further on it.
gross, as in anatomy.
clever.
one extra syllable in line 2; try "I'll" or maybe just "will".
perhaps try using other words beside "give" 5 times. i am sure there are other things you do, such as forgave, tryusted, loved, etc. might help paint the picture better if you explain how much you gave...
this is one subject that is like a vacuum: if it doesn't suck, it is broken.
the void filled my empty space's commet
do i really deserve such zero in this zero effected life ...i dont deserve it ...
thx for ur comments on my poems
ur poems lies in the bed of subconsciousness
so this green fields of ur dreams have drowned emotions
and waken up the soul to find the mirror of the existence
it really helps me if u add comments on my poems
I stands alone on the unsaid of misery
where both worlds lost
where ..............
oh sigh
here in my eyes
what has not been found
You know, I'm not great on titles - in fact can be a bit random with them, but when you write with such dream-like and warm images I think your title should reflect that. It seems a little bland for what you have actually written, which is really good. I like it immensely.
Oh God Yes! I feel the need to stand and cheer!
i felt the 2nd half lacked enough concrete images to hold it together ..... yeah, i did get a bit lost
yeah, the preposition thing..... found it a bit hard going but was rewarded by the clarity of the final image .... stinging just the same
reads like a wordsmith's musing on an empty-minded sunny sunday afternoon;... will search later for hidden depths, should there be any
yesterday's primordial soup ... luvvitt ! too many words though (imho)
mmmmm .... hardly a zero; nice sexy rhythm to start of but to maintain momentum in a poem is more difficult than in actual sex and images ought to be stronger or the poem shorter .... imho
i think this may be trying too hard or maybe it is just the word choices:
"mesmerize my words" doesnt make sense nor does that phrase coupled with the second half of the line. perhaps "memorize my words within your fettered heart".
"sate of delirium"? not "state"? or "breathing in, sated with delirium"?
maybe rearrange lines 3 & 4:
"dreams of you entwine within my mind,
entwining from time to time to the ocean of your memories"
for the last line i agree with Skamper.
i did not see this as so dark; more introspective. it does invoke some interesting ideas.
