turtlefreak Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 People of RD!!! I need you all's advice We are writing poetry books in english and I wrtoe this one poem in about 10 min (Mayhem and Tabby already read it) And Its gonna be the last one in my poem book and I want it to be a good one if not the best here it is: Last Regrets I’m sorry for what I did I didn’t mean to hurt you Don’t look at me that way Like I’m just another issue Please don’t treat me like I’m nothing It was all a big mistake I’m sorry I didn’t live up to your standards And I am just another ache It started as a game We didn’t mean any harm But now I’m sorry I embarrassed you And caused such alarm They told me it was safe And nothing could go wrong But now as I sit here in this cell I realize that this is where I belong Please don’t be mad at me As it is I feel bad Because the sight of that boy, dying on the hospital bed Made me feel really sad I just took one sip That’s all, I swear But then they said, “Here! Drink more!” Which is why he’ll spend life in a wheel chair I was driving home from the party When they crossed the street And in my drunken stupor I ran on to the blackened concrete I am writing this now, in hopes I’ll be forgiven for what I’ve done Because Mom, I didn’t mean to kill your other son what do you think? too sad? too emo? any changes? Discuss!
Miss_Mayhem Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 Sentence structure in terms of a rhythmic pattern of syllables could use some work.
Grey Master Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 You got rhyme, which is good, good use of language, its like a mini-story, in the end, its good.
turtlefreak Posted March 24, 2007 Author Posted March 24, 2007 I wanted a little E.A. Poe twist in there here's a less emo one: Live Life Today Like There’s No Tomorrow Life is a precious gift People just don’t accept that When given an opportunity They turn it down or out on to the doormat Some people are rich Others are poor This is one of the many reasons That this world is fraught with war Everyone has their troubles Will I make it through the week? Does he really love me? Why can’t she speak? There is no perfect world No matter how much you try There will never be a day That no one will cry Life is so short It never does last Those who don’t realize that Are the real outcasts You must live life to its fullest And take advantage of what you control Accept the misfortunes in life And let go of your soul Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching. And live life like it's Heaven on Earth. What about that one? huh? comments or complaints
Davinq Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 It almost seems like a song The Fray would sing. You should send it to them and have 'em take a look at it lol. And help you with it.
Miss_Mayhem Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 The guy that sing for the band is uber-white. Like vampire white.
DarthAve Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 You should write a villanelle. Those are rad and a great way to end a poem book.
Davinq Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 The guy that sing for the band is uber-white. Like vampire white. I've said it before, and I'll say it again Mayhem. Isaac Slade is the shiznit, don't be dissin' on him! -_-
itchythesamurai Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 That reminds me of why American kids have no legitimate reason to be pouty. ****ers.
