 | April 21st, 2007 at 09:57pm Pased in words
turned to fright
panic flowing throught our veins
Thoughts racing
hearts beating
eyes shifting
Trusting hardly oneself
fear of school
skipping and ditching
Guns and bombs
police here and there
what are our lifes turning to
Insults and remarks
turned to guns and sparks
jokes turned to threats
The silence in the air
carries an feeling
a sense of fright
Our lives have gone to hell
school a firey pit
where nightmares are reality
Safety is the past
fear is the present
violence is the future |

 | April 21st, 2007 at 10:11pm It is original, I'll give you that. But it's not fully developed. Or, it may be, but not worded correctly. I'll give you the latter.
Safety is the past
fear is the present
violence is the future.
That, though, was very good.
And me knowing what happened, I know where this came from, so I know it's very personal to you. And I'm taking that into consideration, so it is pretty good.

I liked this part very much.
Although, I thought you could have been a little more experimental with your format instead of three lines a stanza. And you do get your point across.
What I really liked about this poem, like TCD stated above, you lived through that experience so each word exemplifies unfathomable emotion.
Great job. It has a lot of potential.  |

 | April 22nd, 2007 at 03:22pm I agree about the other part, but I still like this line the most:
where nightmares are reality
That's just so hauntingly vivid, I guess. I know exactly where you're coming from, and that line is just the horrible truth. |
