Nice imagery....but forced. It doesn't feel natural.
I liked the first few lines because I could keep the beat. That must have been all you had going, because once I lost the beat, I hated it.

Thanks for responding. :) ok...It was just a simple point in time type thing, but I see where you are going. What type of payoff do you generally look for in a poem? I guess I was only trying to convey a feeling. Nothing more. I see that it could seem "incomplete" for some people. I'll see if I can expand on it. Have you submitted anything recently? This site needs some tlc from poem makers.

Not in the purest sense Free Verse. It feels forced at times, perhaps running the theme through different forms and changing the rhyme scheme could strengthen it.
jh99 on You Chose by some deleted user 27 Feb 2010, 9:09 AM
Not Free Verse, and the rhyming way too forced and clichéd. " Giving me chills " why ? The ending lines in the last stanza offer up hope for this piece.

This is awesome. Original and powerful keep it up, the world needs writings like this.

This is very well written. There is hope after all.
jh99 on Dad by Sheeva 27 Feb 2010, 1:44 PM
Too many " forced rhymes ". Try alternating the rhyme scheme or dropping it altogether and use different descriptions for the emotions, make it fresh and original that way.

Apart from Tom Petty, and some Bollywood films, Free Verse lyrics are rare. This however has a lot of clichés and the pacing is way off. These do read as lyrics with the repeated stanzas. You need to seriously rethink your efforts on this and try to write something more original.

The difference between poetry and a page out of a diary is very considerable here.
jh99 on Under My Head by Blindpoetry 28 Feb 2010, 12:43 AM
I am absolutely confused by the lack of sense in this and the structure of some lines makes it worse. If this was intended to be abstract, it's too structured, and it's structure is too abstract.
jh99 on a piece of me by Freethinker1602 28 Feb 2010, 12:47 AM
I'm finding out how clichéd this writing is. If you want this thing to be better, come up with more original thinking. This sounds like every POP song I hate.
