Frozen tears fall to the ground,
My burning fists pound and pound,
Until the earth is naught but gray,
Until my body drifts astray,
--------------------------------------------
On dusty barren earth I lie,
Sandy, shard like tears I cry,
Awaiting clouds of sun burnt walls,
Softy whispers, softly calls,
---------------------------------------------------
Corrosive grays and earthy brown,
Gnashing teeth and deepened frown,
Frozen river, stabbing screech,
Attached to my heart is loves leech.

I truly liked this poem.
I am not a fan of rhyme, but you made it work well for you.
A skill that is crafted over time.
I however would edit the last stanza.
The other two were immensely powerful.
The last needs to be cleaned up, I believe. -
yes.
You show enough potential, I think through boot camp you'll be able to clean this up. -
No.
-
Yes
Too many colors, in my opinion. However, what you have here shows potential. The first stanza was my favorite part. -
very visual and unique. i love your take on that picture.

fav stanza
"On dusty barren earth I lie,
Sandy, shard like tears I cry,
Awaiting clouds of sun burnt walls,
Softy whispers, softly calls,"

Though the poem was quite short the rhyme was perfect. It was very tight and flowed perfectly. Hugely enjoyable and descriptive.
Thanks.

considered becoming a poet miki?
You are amazing! how do you manage to rhyme so well?
We could study this at school! -
This is a lovely piece! For someone your age, I normally don't expect much, but you have something here, the beginnings of something amazing ripening. Just stick with it and push yourself and let yourself grow, see where this site can take you! You are a whole lot better than a lot of adult writers I come across. If you ever need or want advice, you are more then welcome to ask!
