Why didn't you cahnge "it's" to "its" on this edit? It's been pointed out before. "forge you a sword" - don't get the connection. Otherwise good.

how about "borne on her tears? " I would remove 'weeping' from the last stanza, maybe more. there is a power to this. I like it a lot.

great poem, perhaps i dont agree with the no straight answer part, but thats just diffence in opinion or belief. but over all im lovin this poem! 9 ~Autumn

"life's" seems unneeded, and "nightly" seems not often enough for most catastrophes.

Seems silly. What on earth do you mean?

Eats shoots leaves

this is very good because it says what the person is thinking.

i like this - but i must say i disagree the answers are never in any one else but yourself, and if you are not finding them then you may not be ready to know - but i don't think, even though we would all like to believe otherwise, that the answers can be found in any other person -megan

nice - i like this alot - -megan

i like this but it is a bit too much all at once i think that the concrete block of words may make people less likely to read it - perhaps if you broke if up into verses or stanzas regardless it was good - megan

i really really like this you tell it well -megan p.s. - you are here because you obviously like to wright poetry - so i ask you this why not put her name in the books and the learned memory of those around the world?

i like this - it actually reminds me of something i wrote - in fact the theme is very similar (perhaps great minds think alike?) :) you could make it a little bit better if you sharped some of the edges and played with your word choice, but it is overall very nicely done - 9 - -megan

not your best work by far - i think that if this was sung and hade a really creative tune it would work but as simple words it seems slightly lacking - 8 - -megan

it is nice - i like this - but as others have posted before - i think that this is one of lifes unanswered questions - -megan

seems a too have a touch of fruedian psychology - i like it -megan

i absolutely love this - 10! -megan

i like this - its not your strongest work by far - and your ending is weak - but you bring up good points - 8 - -megan

i enjoy this, and if flows very nicely, though the what exactly it is all about if somewhat foggy to me -megan

i absolutely love this it is superb, you right it so well and your theme with the newsman was very nice -megan

i really like all of your work it is written so well, you seem to be an original voice among a sea of overused cliches -kudos -megan
