In Your Heart

Drowning in your filthy lies
Sinking in your hazel eyes
Flaws overcome sense of fear
I hold my heart and call you dear

Basking in a warm sunlight
With myself I try to fight
Part of me wants you to stay
The other just wants you to pay

For the pain you've put me through
Its a wonder I still love you
Struggle to realise all mistakes
Knowing all your tears are fake

Why do I love you till I die?
Why can't I peacefully watch you cry?


My soul rests at its sullen mood
I hide under my misty hood
Resurrected save of faith
I wake up but its just too late

The moth of fate has flown too far
Now I just can't reach the bar

Why do I love you till I die?
Why can't I peacefully watch you cry?


Because I'm only dead inside
In your dark heart I reside

Don’t just post to post or to get your freakin’ posts up!!! Say why you like/dislike a poem. Give constructive criticism if necessary! And for God’s sake stop telling people that they write great poems when they so obviously don’t! And if you think this is good you clearly know nothing about good poetry. This is ok at it’s best. It’s nowhere near good.

Anyway, about the poem. The flow is non-existing and the rhymes are so forced and so overused that I almost want to cry. The theme of the poem is very, very cliché. This has been done the same way too many times before. The rhyming scheme makes it hard for you to keep to your chosen theme and you put in irrelevant things just to make it rhyme. That’s obviously wrong. Also, skip the bold words next time. I just doesn’t work for you.

To improve you should try free verse. That would make it so much easier for you to be creative, and it will be much easier to keep to the theme. Try working on your metaphors or use grand or poetic words and perhaps a even more poetic wording (‘cause you got that right and that’s a start). Try to find your own way of expressing yourself, a different way. Try different forms when it comes to poetry and try to make it unique for you. Work on your flow by reading the poem aloud. I know you can write great poems with some practice because you've got potential. Good luck Up

Wheeeeee! <3 I loved it. Beautifully worded. Unlike a lot of poems, it didn't burn my eyes out. Wicked awesome.

This isn’t meant in a bad way but are you serious? Do you know anything
about poetry what so ever? I mean it’s just way cliché and banal.
The wording is ordinary and it’s just the way the sentences are written
that gives it sort of a poetic touch. There is nothing awesome about it *shakes head*
Creds to you for saying why you liked it though Smile

The first two lines were great, in my opinion. I loved 'filthy lies' especially. However, much of the poem is very simplistic... it's good poetry, but it doesn't stand out. You need more description and imagery to make it, for lack of a better word, 'pretty'.
