(p.s fanx 4 da comment, yes i did rite it wid a lil guidence frm my uncle it was my 1st eva poem n i neva rote 1 dat cood top it lol)X

Firstly, I would like to say that I too found

'One bad in the world, makes the headlines fast
But a mountain of good, surely isn't to last'

to be my favorite stanza, and I must say I was suprised I wrote it, as I always am with good piece I write.

Anyway, on to this poem. I thought it was a pretty good poem, but I did feel it was a better poem at the beginning than at the end. The emotion I think is what really made this poem. I think my favorite stanza was the third one. I can't quite put my finger on why, but maybe its because it was mysterious or maybe it was the flow, I'm not sure. Anyway love, I'm off.

P.S. Thanks for your comment on my poems, and for your suggestion on 'A Destructive World'.

"I'll get over it, but not right now.
Please don't watch me cry these tears.
No, I can't explain myself to you.
Just go on assuming, I'm battling fears."

So many times we cover up our hurt with the lie of something else. It seems that you pulled out every bit of pain that were feeling and placed it on this page.

Very well done, dear friend.
