Comments : Why?

  • 15 years ago

    by Poet on the Piano

    "Why am I crying?
    Why am I so upset?
    Why is this heart so sad?
    What's making it so damn mad?"

    ^First off, there are to many "why"s, maybe try using different more descriptive words, instead of the same ones....

    "I believe,
    That everything happens for a reason."

    Very true words here...

    "And still,
    I ask myself, why...
    I ask myself,
    These endless questions."

    Still, I think you are way too repetitive but I did like what you were saying here...

    "Questions to which,
    I still have found no answers."

    I do love the ending line though, sums it up greatly....

    Overall, you did good, but I think you could go back and work on this, put more feeling and emotion into it, cause I didn't really feel like there was much in it. I hope this helps! Keep writing, always and forever....

    "Why am I crying?
    Why am I so upset?"
    `I sometimes ask myself this. I can relate to asking myself this several times...

    "Why is this heart so sad?
    What's making it so damn mad?"
    `I kinda liked how these two rhymed, but you are being a bit repetitive with the word why with the opening few lines.

    "Why is it so hopeless?
    Why is there so much hatred?"
    `Yeah, you repeat why way too much. It becomes so repetitive that there is no flow with the poem really. But I can totally see where you are coming from, you are so confused.. Emotions are so clear in this write .

    "I believe,
    That everything happens for a reason."
    `Oh, nice. I agree with you 100%. This statement is amazing.

    "I ask myself,
    These endless questions.

    Questions to which,
    I still have found no answers."
    `Good ending. :]

    Overall, a good write. But definatly needs to be less repetitive. Don't use the word why so much. Make it your own. It was too short, and didn't say much at all. You could have added so much more to your poem here. Your emotions/feelings were clear but I think that you could have expanded on this in someway. You didn't impress me that much with this poem. Improvement is needed. 4/5.

    i believe we all ask these questions from day today, things happen for a reason but why must it turn out sad?

    great job!!

    Indeed many question rise from this poem.
    The way you wrote it showed that you're really feeling lost inside the madness. There weren't any rhymes, but here it would indeed ruine the flow you built. The words could be better, and I still think the language is too simple for this kind of subject.
    Nice work though 4/5

    Umm.. I like questions in poems, but I think you over did it just a little... There were just too many whys. I didn't really get that much emotion.. try to write from your heart, not your head, and you'll be fine. :]

    Keep writing.
