Poetry Behind The Heart

by Poetic Tragedy08   Jun 18, 2006


You'd leave me alone all together
You'd betray me through our love
You can take the news easily while ripping me
Break me and tear into a tragedy

On the last day I've been broken
With a knife held high I smile
I yell loudly for a last shot of betrayal
I'll take my life with a blade in my hand

Another life has been added to the list
Due to the love of a carelessness
Through you I was able to be blinded
Your memories have been mended and you move on

I tortured myself but you didn't give heed
You never asked for my love, but I gave it
I begged you for yours, and you refused
You've already forgotten and found another target

A suicidal tragedy you helped occur
The poetry behind his heart was held inside
But you didn't mind his unlawful leaving
To you....it's just another pathetic life...

    I liked the last stanza heaps. It was a pretty good poem, Really sad though. Your flow was alright, but your rhyming seemed a little off. Still a great piece though. =) 5/5

    "On a last day I've been broken"
    sounds like 'a' should be replaced with 'the'

    "Due to the love of a carelessness"
    carelessness isn't a noun, it's an adjective, so 'a carelessness' doesn't make sense, remove the 'a'
    ~~~
    In the last stanza you shifted to the third person, and I'd recommend remaining in either the first or third throughout the poem.
    ~~~
    I thought that this poem was lacking descriptive details about both the narrator and the girl. Without details, a poem that should be personal falls more to cliche than anything. This was still a good poem, but could have been better.

    As a note, the 3 other poems I am going to read are love poems, which I am unable to do at work. I'll get to them later today, sorry for the delay.
