For a Girl

Will the wind always whisper your name?
Plaguing this brittle heart with its game?
Past dances have taken an incredible toll
Against that from which kind gestures roll.
Patchwork preservation is all I boast
A fractured vessel, my love to host.
Now here I lie, sad thoughts awoken
While upon the wind your name is spoken.

    I didn't find your words unoriginal, poets may write about the same experiences, but these are your words and your voice.

    I like how you wrapped it with her name being whispered by the wind, it's beautiful

    Unoriginal is something I find often, and yet don't think exists.
    It's hard to do something original but we all do it in our own unique way.

    Your rhyme excellent, flow perfect and hearts broken achieved. Beautiful piece

    Unoriginal this is not, love is a complex thing, at times we must use the only words we can find to rid ourselves of the pain. Beautifully written. Best to you fine poet

    Yeah... I know those feelings. Seem that I hear a name in the whispers of the wind all the time, but alas, shall never know what the meaning of that is for me... other than the broken heart that mingles with the feeling and the name...

    Great job!

    and love

    wonderfully written love the part....Will the wind always whisper your name?
    Plaguing this brittle heart with its game?
    Past dances have taken an incredible toll

    WOW

    this is amazing! I love the way you worded it and how you used your feeling. The personification of the wind was very intriguing. I felt like this about someone once. I cannot really put one emotion with this poem. good work I look forward to reading more from you.

    many people have written about lst love, yes, but your poem is origional. i really really really like this, you captured a bit of how i'm feeling as well. loved the personification of the wind. i can't really say exactly how this poem left me feeling- which is usually an indication that it was great. keep writing.

    I really love the wind in this poem; maybe because it resonates with me. The rhyme scheme is good, and I like the term "fractured vessel" very much. It fits well. The last two lines are very bittersweet and very quotable. Good job. ^_^ I enjoyed it.

  • Wonderful.

    it's a great piece.
    Every line is very well balanced and adds just enough.

    Great Write!

      Cheers Phil. I was in a bit of a pensive mood last night that's all.
