Sillytune Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Between the lies, of a shadowOf a mask, that is me, I have found something,One can say, It's killing me. If there ever was something,That i could say, and say no more,It's the fear of being, and ending,Truly alone.In a corner, of a corner, Where night means - not a thing, And all of darkest memories,Begin, start, and keep striking,The only glimmer, the only light, That one, can truly have,Is a piece, of a hope, Is a peace, that promises, Sadness gone. Amid the mist of ruins, Where i'm suffocating me, All my deaths are dying,What is left will be.If i could cry for a tear, Of a tear, of what is torn, If i could only stop, And say, say - no more - It is a storm, it is a hope,A symbol of previous words,That keep on pushing,WithTen men, in one. And more.~ I'm simply trying out something, all that poetry and stuffz! - Would love to get feedback :3 ? Quote
Tanuchan Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 I like this =) It has an interesting rhythm because of your use of commas, that forces small pauses in some places where I might not usually stop; it's an interesting emphasis, intriguing sometimes, but I really like how it flows. The end, where you suddenly use three very short verses and forces a break in the rhythm, made me stumble in the first reading; but I think that it adds some undefinable feeling of... maybe sadness? I don't really know how to pinpoint what it is, but I still like the effect. I generally do not go into the "meaning" of the words in a poem as, for me, they are something really subjective unless you're actually bulding a poem as a part of an exercise. But this part If i could cry for a tear, Of a tear, of what is torn, intrigues me a lot. Adds to some mystery, I'd say! I've told you that there's a natural music in what you write; my opinion holds ;-) Thank you for sharing! Quote
