    Years
    They act as if you never left,
    As though your life was meaningless,
    As though you were of no importance...
    No longer am I aknowledged,
    Just left alone in the corner of the room,
    Wondering where you are,
    Wondering why you left me to this fate...
    The world has turned their back on me,
    Left me without a hand to hold,
    Without my driving flame..
    Life seems pointless now,
    But it's like you always said to me,
    "Keep holding on."


    Ugh..I haven't written poetry is a few years. :x
    I didn't know I had gotten this bad. o.O
    Ah well. I needed to get this off my chest.​
     
    I kinda suck at reveiwing poetry, so don't critizize me for critizing you...

    Now i like how it flows and such, but you need a new subject. I may have heard a song almost exactly like this since the concept you use is a little popunlar and over-used.

    Good luck with your future writing.

    Yeah I know, but I just felt compelled to write this.

    I'll make more unique subjects in the future, it's just that I haven't written in awhile and my writing skills (as far as poetry goes) have slipped away from me, and I want to get back into it by starting with something I can easily write. =D Thanks Manaphy!

    And Vavavoom, thank you! Yeah, it actually does. I have this thing where, whenever I write something, I always pour my emotions into it. ^^;

    No pun intended, but judging from your poetry thread I reckon you should try that yourself.

    Now, Stardust, it seems like you manage metric and rhythm pretty well, you choice of words is general and rather monotone, which makes the poem be open to many interpretations; either you could lenghten it if you want to make it more clear. Either way it's still a good poem.

    Also, 'aknowledged' should be 'acknowledged'

    Ah ha ha. Not funny.

    Sample Work:

    "Just look at me
    You're standing there
    I'm lying here
    I'm dying here

    If I were you in this situation
    I'd look away
    From the bloody damn
    Body there
    Lying there
    Don't look at me
    As i'm trying here
    Not to be dying there

    Just look at me
    You're standing there
    I'm lying here
    I'm dying here

    Don't look at my
    Damn corpse
    Sprawled on the pavement
    Just look away
    Away from here
    Start running now

    Just look at me
    You're standing there
    I'm lying here
    I'm dying here"

    Thanks so much for that.

    Yeah Manaphy, your poetry is excellent. =D

    Thanks. And I had a hard time coming up with anything descriptive for this poem which usually doesn't happen, but during summer my intellegence and vocabulary seem to slip away. ^^;

    Oh whoops XD

    Er... I wasn't trying to be funny. It was just a tip; I'm sorry if it sounded harsh or you felt I was attacking you.

    Anyway, please try to stay on topic; I have seen people doing the exact same thing in your thread, I reckon you should know how it is.
     
    I really do like this poem, I think it could flow a little nicer though. But you do say your feelings very well with your words. Don't worry poetry isn't that much about practice as much as coming from the heart.
