Stab in the Back

by Mister 47   Jul 1, 2008


Degraded heart , passing beside me ,
feeling SO low and cutting inside
smiling in public so no one can see
what this wave of feeling have brought with the tide

look in a glance in the past and understand
the trail of broken footprint on the sands of life
where i hold you all the path with my two hands
and then after you strike me with the sharpest knife

and now i stand on the beach of sands,
holding my heart in both hands
and look at you go, and walk away
with no heart to hate , no words to say

    "Degraded heart , passing beside me ,

    ^^ First -- no space after "heart" or "me".

    "look in a glance in the past and understand
    the trail of broken footprint on the sands of life
    where i hold you all the path with my two hands
    and then after you strike me with the sharpest knife"

    ^^ "footprint" should be "footprints". I's should be capitalized.

    "and now i stand on the beach of sands,
    holding my heart in both hands
    and look at you go, and walk away
    with no heart to hate , no words to say"

    ^^ I's should be capitalized. Fourth line -- no space after "hate".

    Overall; it was good. I liked it a lot. :]

    5/5

    Well, you sir, are harboring some serious talent. I think it all seems natural, like the words just flow and make perfect sense. It expresses it well. YOU express it well.
    Keep it up.[:
