Comments : Fate; In The Form Of A Man

    Precociously; I have approached
    unsecured gates of a darker world

    -He stood right beneath;
    curving ahead of me long paths
    planted with endless pain; on one side.
    Leaving another path un-curved,

    -for my ultimate imagination..

    ^^
    To always see that one path yet to be taken is essential, it is what keeps a person going!
    I like un-curved, because it makes clear you are aware of the fact that you can shape your own future.

    So I Sneaked around the dreary mornings,
    painted with unrelenting rain
    breathing the foggy cold air,
    of dim sighing moments..

    ^^
    This is a very, very sad image of you:( Good wording, though, in all its sadness.

    Looking inward seeking more images
    to be revealed
    I glimpsed edges and corners falling
    washing away every bit of beauty.
    Unpleasant paths, dull as tarnished mirrors.

    ^^
    I hope that you will take that one path that is worthy of someone as young and beautiful as you;)

    Seeking the likes of me;
    who fear what tomorrow might be holding
    upon the arms of future.
    Anything is everything, yet everything may be nothing.
    Unless I step aside the frame of life

    ^^
    step outside?

    I hope you will have everything.

    Controlled by the mishandled lies of life
    yet I will rewrite my future, as I recall my past.
    Recoloring the nothingness that's shaping my life

    ^^
    Re-shape it, with all your power, hun. Time is soooo precious, if only you knew how quickly life is over!

    For fate stood again beneath me
    in the form of a man

    ^^
    Why BENEATH you, why not in front of you?

    curving ahead of me long paths
    planted with endless pain; on one side.
    Leaving another path un-curved,

    -for my ultimate imagination..

    ^^
    I hope you will go on to that one path and stay on forever:)

    Well done hun,

    *hugs*

    This poem was actually really good. I thought when I first saw it(in the tournament) that it wasn't all that great but upon further inspection I see that it is really good. the message of this poem was nice and I think the entire piece flowed nicely from line to line and you did a wonderful job getting out the images and ideas you wanted in this piece. I was almost unable to decide, which line I liked the most but...

    "So I Sneaked around the dreary mornings,
    painted with unrelenting rain
    breathing the foggy cold air,
    of dim sighing moments.."

    I found one! :] It took me long deliberation and finally I got to this stanza, which I came to most. The description in this piece was really great and also the sadness etched in this lines were overpowering and full of other emotions as well. You have a wise choice of words and I found it very colorful.

    All in all, I found this to be an incredible poem for the tournament and I believe you did a great job. Many descriptions and emotions turned this poem into a beautiful picture. Great job and keep writing.
