    I wrote this to basically get some closure on the death of my best friend Angel

    When I remember you my mind starts to stir
    Cuz I don't even know what your last words were
    I walked around and wondered what you would do
    If you were in my position I thought it all through
    I figured you would know not to dwell in the past
    Theres just no time for that, life moves way to fast

    Everytime I think of you my mind starts to stir
    Cuz I don't even know what your last words were
    I was staring at the ceiling last night while in bed
    Remembering again all those things that you said
    You told me you would do nothing stupid...you lied
    I though about that durin that one time that i cried

    When I remember you my mind starts to stir
    Cuz i don't even know what your last words were
    I walked around and thought that I'd see you somewhere
    Till it hit me that its real...you're no longer there
    I wouldn't let that be one of the times that i cried
    So now rest in peace man i'll see you on the other side...
     
    This poem was a bit choppy and confusing. You did keep the repitition of the first two lines which was ok, but the repetition of lines where you talk about crying and not crying is the confusing part.

    You also had some grammer and spelling mistakes as well. If you fix that up and the other parts of the poem, it would be ok.

    Good luck with the rest of your poems ^-^

    Repetition in first two lines of paragraph is used, but to no other specific effect. Try to repeat something for emphasis, not just so that it fills the poem and it makes it look big. Although your poem has structure, the rhythm was sort of odd, in combination with your rhymes. Try to watch your syllables and stresses to make it sound a bit more pleasant. You're a promising writer, but keep on trying!
