A Look at LIfe

by LockedInEternity   May 25, 2006


On day she just decides to think,
To leave her friends just for a day,
But as her thoughts get through to her,
She cannot help but run away.

Just for that moment,
She just stopped.
To take a look around,
But she was not expecting, the truth she really found.

She stopped because the world seemed to be spinning way too fast.
The days, a rush
Increasing speed,
Each one could be her last.

For that one moment when she stopped,
A sudden thought occurred:
Is this how she would live her life?
As if her vision's BLURRED?

As each day led her towards the next,
Her life would swiftly disappear.
So pointless, sad and lonely,
And when she spoke, no one would hear.

Not liking what she saw around her,
She felt she didn't want to stay.
The only thing that kept her here,
Was what had made her run away.

A slight debate against herself,
But you can't win with only one.
So she just pushed out all her thoughts,
And that's when she began to run.

Cause when she stopped to look around,
She looked into her past.
She wanted something of her life,
EACH DAY COULD BE HER LAST!!!

    I like this, it tells a nice story with a good rhythm to it. I think you could work the layout of it a bit so it is more even, that should improve the flow. Also, I think "to fast" should be "too fast" Take care

    Her life would swiftly disappear.

    And when she spoke, no one would hear.

    That was my favorite stanza in the whole poem. I liked the poem, but I didn't love it.. Nothing seemed to stick out to me. Sorry.
