Now: what i am

by sweet escape   Mar 16, 2008


Far away in another land,
sits a little girl, playing in the sand,
happy as can be.
but now that little girl is me.
no longer happy, i sit and cry.
all i want to do is say good bye,
to this world and my life.
so i give myself up to my knife.
as the red river runs, i feel no pain
but what is it i have to gain?
nothing, but i have much to loose.
only if its the path i choose
matters not, loose, what i may
for i can not survive another day.

    This is a really simple poem but because its so simple it makes it seem as though it has a twist in a way...like..no matter how simple the words you used it made the poem seem so much more deeper and realistic...My favorite lines were :

    to this world and my life.
    so i give myself up to my knife.

    These two lines cut across everything else you wrote in this poem =] amazing job mwah xxx

    Now..

    the imagery at the start was very good, you could atucally see the little girl in your head. i liked the structure to this poem, and the shortness. the little story and the images are very good, also the fact that you used a 'little' girl gives it a sense of innocence, the rest of the story shows destroying the innocent, the rhyme scheme AABBCC, is a very good one, that matched this poem spot on. i also like the retorical question in the midlle, it catchs your attention quite alot. the last line, is very good, you can feel the feelings behind it. although i like this poem alot more than the last one i read i think the simplicity works better in this poem.
