Balanced

Welling up inside of me again
         Feelings of burning hate and rage
Yet a calm pool of serenity I remain to eyes
                Eyes as windows
                            To peer and witness the carnage
Of my minds savage massacre
                   Blank and un-repented
            I stand as a tower
In the calm of a raging storm

    You have great control over your writing skills. I enjoyed reading your poem. I specially like how you've brought out the anger feelings in words. Good Work!

    Amazing!

    What I like most about this poem was the fact that it was so haertfelt or candid, which makes for a great piece. I think anyone who reads it will feel what you"re saying. It"s great when a poet can use words to move readers, and you truly moved me. I really admire the similes you used, yourself being the tower in the storm and such. It was simple yet powerful!

    good

    nice...angry, and yet controlled....u should title it though....maybe like "Anger" or "Control" seems appropiate for it. Good write, you have an awesome use of words. It short, and sweet, and i love the big words. I enjoy things that use the bigger words in the poetry even though it means it is sometimes too hard to read. I hope that u can overcome ur anger because i know how it is to have an uncontrollable anger, and not wanting to allow it to escape....good job, and i hope u overcome....
    In Christ,
    Jake
