MY ANGEL OF THE DARK

by Rocky   Oct 27, 2006


When i was all alone
dying in the dark
she would appear
my angel of death
in her masks of light
with grief in her heart
and tears in her eyes
she'd beg forgiveness
for all the pain caused
And all the lies
say that she loves me
and how when apart
her heart just dies
and so i would forgive her
as she always knew i would
i could never truly hate her
though we both knew i should
so once more
i would take her in my arms
whisper into her ear
that all is forgotten
this is our new start
and slowly her tears would run dry
in happiness
i would hear her sigh
i would see her smile
her love for me
shinning so deep within her eyes
then ever so gently
she would reach out her hand
to lay upon my heart
and then in split second
she would laugh
as she clenched it into a fist
and again tore it apart
to leave me all alone
dying in the dark

this is a poem about a girlfriend i had many years ago. may these feelings forever R.I.P

    From what I read of your work I liked the description and the flow was good abit long at times but so goes life. I think your main idea in the poems gets lost alot in your work. Having so many things pop up in your mind at once that happens but for the most part I think you should ask yourself what is the message I wish to convey to my reader and start with that. Ever sentance you write ask yourself the same question this will keep your work tight and the reader wanting to hear everything you have to say Plot121

    I thought this one was very well written. It had some flow, and rhymes to it. In some places though, you seemed to leave out small, but crucial words in lines to make room for flow and rhythm. My opinion is to read it over, and check for any grammar mistakes you may have made. It'll help a lot when people are trying to read your poems.

    The emotion in this was also very good. You seem to have a lot of emotion or pressure in your life, but you don't know how to jot it down on paper (or computer). That's what I'm seeing anyways. I don't mean that you can't write worth anything. You write great. But you write a certain way every single time. Try spicing it up a bit. People like that. And, you could always try to set up a format for each poem. This one had rhyme and flow and it was really good. But I think it'd be more straight forward if you broke the lines up into stanzas.

    I'm not saying you need to change your whole poem around. It's your choice. I am simply saying that you don't always have to write the same in the future, and it's good to have something a little different now and then. =) 5/5 xoxo

    Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner, I havent forgotten that I promised to reply. Just been so busy, anyway this is
    such a lovely piece of work and your talent truly amazes me. I thought the way it was written was very clever
    and to me as the reader, I find it interesting and unique to look at. Keep up the great work and my favourite part of the poem,
    the bit that stood out the most was

    with grief in her heart
    and tears in her eyes
    she'd beg forgiveness
    for all the pain

    an emotional, deep, well written poem, well done!
