    A good poem but to me it was a little hard to read, the tenses are off a little so the flow isnt great but it is a good poem and after rereading it i understood it and liked it a lot.

    That imagery is breathtaking, it feels so real you can see it, 5/5 the emotion flowing inside of the poem makes it so alive 5/5 again

    DARIENNNNN. Omg, wow. I missed reading your poetry.. You are so amazing. This was just wow. So dark & deep. It flowed really well & painted a lovely picture.. Well, not really cos its sad.. but you know. :]

    I am painted crimson red
    like a sea of blood
    Many have died here
    but I am the only victim

    Needless to say I survived
    The hate and bloodshed
    Once a peaceful ground
    demolished from love's battle

    ^ These were my favorite stanzas :] So powerful.

    Amazingly penned, babe.

    ...It's good. The words were excellent and the imagery too cool. Last stanza is definitely my fave. But I must admit the entire thing was attention grabbing. Cool write.

    This is quite a powerful piece, so haunting. Very well/beautifully written.

    "You are the weapons
    destroying everything"
    ^^ Nice phrasing!

    "Many have died here
    but I am the only victim"
    ^^^ I like this line, very powerful.

    Darien this was beautiful. I am tearing for you, for your pain. It was so vivid in this poem, it hurt. I promise that you will not remain a bloody battle-field forever. There will be others who will reach out their hands to pull you back to paradise, just hold on until they come. There is someone out there for you who will bring you higher in life, and make you want to be stronger than you have even been in your life. Just keep holding on until she comes.

    Awhh. Darienn, are you okay hunni? This was a very emotional poem. The descriptions were simple yet conveyed how you were feeling in a very metaphoric way. I love how you described love as a battlefieldd like that song by michael jackson. Haha. You used good vocabulary and had good descripitons. Ily 5/5

    Hey,
    I like the overall metaphor you have going on hear. Youve described it all as a battlefield, bringing the subject og war and stuff in. Yet the poem is all about love. Battle of love. It brings this entire new yet intresting concept into place, it really captures the readers attention and makes them want to read more. Anyways your poem makes the reader curious of what happened to spark of this battle. I like how youve described yourself as well as the "Opponant". The overall flow was good. To improve i think you should use punctuation. Other then that, an excellent read. Keep writing! xx

    At first I was thinking oh, Pat Benatar is amazin, I wanna read this poem. I thought it would be kind of similar but it is so dark and just oh so wonderful. Again I love how you take such common ideas or songs and twist them in your poetic sense. Absolutely amazing.
    Loved this:
    Many have died here
    but I am the only victim

    5/5
