    I must say that i can feel a lot of anger in this poem.The way you portray yor life seems like a neverending curse.

    So what do you do
    When everyone left your side
    Where do you run
    When there's no where to hide

    ^^^ I like how you end thsi poem. Yeah it's true sometimes we juz wanna runaway from our problems but without any shelter and money in hand where could we possibly go?

    The poem is nicely written I like really enjoyed reading it.keep it up

    Excellent Job

    Well that was a really expersionate poem , beign 15 is never an easy task ,
    when every fight is simply lost , we always think we need to get out and be free .

    your poem is good in expression but weak on structure and rhyming , the line lenght were off and so dose teh syllabls count .

    other than that you deserve my vote

    Yeah, I know, fifteen is far from a fairytale. People try to tell you they know what your going through, when they don't know the half of it. Drugs and alcohol are only good for a bit, until they wear off and reality strikes again. Cutting only takes your mind off it, the problems never actaully leave. And like you said - Each day is new
    Only to be the same shit
    A thought provoking write. It was really good, don't ever stop 5/5

    That was such a sad poem filled with depressed feelings, why is that :( you're too young for that, a very negative way you're looking at life with...believe me life has many bright sides IF you looked at them, dont stay in the dark corner dont put yourself in the cycle of depression, get out of that dark place, make new friends, find your life, getting depressed is easy, staying in it is easier, its getting out of the depresssion that is hard, no one will get you out of that except YOU when YOU want to...

    i liked the poem thou, it was perfectly written and touchful...

    keep writting, hope there'll be no more sad poems later...

    I felt, this was a very average piece, I’m afraid. A lot of the piece’s flow was broken by the structure. Some lines were far too shorts, and others, far too long. In the first two stanzas, the rhymes were poor, even for half-rhymes. What made it worse is that the first stanza was made weak by the last line, by the desperate involvement of a film, which had no real connection to what was being said. The second stanza, however, I thought was the best, in the whole piece, and could’ve been made even better, if it had a better rhyme. I also think the use of razor blades, knives, etc, has been overused, and so whenever they’re now used, it automatically, for me, weakens a piece. Lastly, though the closing stanza was simple and average, it still possessed strength, which is always important to have in the last stanza.

    Brad

    P.S. Sorry if I seem harsh. I really don’t like to comment negatively on people’s work, but I have to give my true opinions, and believe it or not, I’m actually trying to help you.

    Why is my life spinning out of control?
    What did I do for this to be?
    It's all happening so fast
    It's like that movie thirteen

    *I like you start this. It makes me want to find out what happened to you. I like the allusion about the movie 13 too*

    Struggling for existence
    Only to be a shadow
    Fighting with parents
    Only to lose the battle

    *Wow...I like the first too lines. That's very clever. I can relate to the fighting with parent...it's so annoying*

    Each day is new
    Only to be the same shit
    So much drama
    And I can only take bit by bit

    *Whoa watch the langauge..jk. I think it makes us see how upset you are.*

    What happens when you give up?
    Cause all the pain you seen
    I shouldn't have too
    I'm only fifteen

    *I would change this to "Beacuse of the pain you have seen" I shouldn't have to this this I'm only fifteen. Sounds better to me*

    Fighting through the tears
    With razor blades and drugs
    Hearing positive attitudes
    Only to lean upon shrugs

    *I like this stanza. I can really relate. You don't want to see others happy when you're in so much pain. Very emotional*

    Growing up
    Under the pressure to be good
    Only to be alone
    Left where you stood

    *I would change the line to "And so misunderstood" left where you stood sounds weird to me*

    So what do you do
    When everyone left your side
    Where do you run
    When there's no where to hide

    *Change left to leaves. I like the rhetorical questions. Overall this was a good poem. I like how you wrote it. Keep it up. And it's not average, because it's your on story. Nik*
