Today

by Chris Rodriguez   Sep 28, 2006


Bullets fall like rain in the streets
Blood flows like water under your feet
Can someone please tell me where I've been?
The question is do we deserve anything at all?

Tonight no one is here
No one is here tonight

My mother cries for being the only one
Who actually cared for us and everyone

My thought turn to this girls skin
I started to believe there was no hope at all

Today does anyone care?
Does anyone care today?

Swimming on top a sea of faces
So tired but I hope to pick up the pieces
The door is shut she walks away
You have to live with the life you have today

Now's the time to live
The time to live is now

    {Loved this stanza!}

    This poem is very very nice.. i liked the depth and the emotion in this piece also this poem says so much to me ... i love it! only critique i would give to you is that don't use too many I's, Me's, It's, etc... Using too many of them can ruin the flow and most people downvote the poem because of that... try using differnt words which mean the same thing... also use commas and fullstops.
    but still the poem as it is great and i can say you are very talented.. my poems aren't as great as yours but anyway Great Poem.. Loved the meaning behind it! and Keep it Up!

    Keep Smiling
