    A sad yet very beautiful poem. I dont use the word beautiful loads when commenting on poems, i think this is the first time ive used it while commenting a sad poem. Yet the way you described this girl, it was simply beautiful. I loved the description you used in this poem, it created excelent imagery. The way you described the girl; "sweet angelic scent", was realy beutiful. And the the fact that it was just your imagination. Its really powerful, and very emotional. To improve this i suggest you use a more variety of punctuation. Otehr then that a good read. Keep it up! xx

    Okay.
    First Stanza: First line; Take out the "I'm" in the first line, it will help the flow and sound more poetic. Second line should be something like: Like tears that roll down my face, it would probably help the flow a bit. Last line would sound better if it said " As I begin"
    Second Stanza: First line; instead of to the put on, it'd sound a bit better. Last two lines should become one sentence in two lines and you shouldn't have 'is' and 'was' it should ALL 'is' or all 'was'.
    Fourth Stanza: neared instead of near. shined instead of shines. have had instead of have her in.
    Fifth Stanza: Perfection. :D
    Overall: I loved the ending, lots. You did a great job with this poem, there were a few MINOR things that could improve it, or so I thought. Others might not. This is your poem, remember that. So, not all my critique is usefull. I think you could have used better words to describe, to make it sound a bit more poetic. But, overall you did a GREAT job. I absolutely loved it. :D
    Keep it up, sweetheart.

    Oh my...this is really sad...
    though absolutely beautiful...
    i must say: free verse is a very difficult write, is hard to make it look poetic, but you surely made it...
    i like the theme, it reminds me of my own write, it's so easy for me to relate to it...
    5/5
    keep going

    It's so true that when we get desperate for love we'll look for it anywhere, sometimes you'll spend a night with somebody just because you wanted someone to hold onto. Excellent poem and amazing imagery 5/5 GG23

    Hey! Here I go! :)

    Stanza 1:
    "Walking alone on a rainy day
    Like tears that rolls down my face
    I hold myself as tight as I can
    As I begin to shiver in this arctic road"

    -- There seems to be a sad feeling in this stanza, as it's the 'alone on a rainy day', but I love dancing in the rain, so I think rain = happy, but in this case, I'll feel sad :) Love the word choice, 'arctic road'. Gives me the feeling of 'rain' and 'cold'.. and the 'road' as in 'alone'. Nice choice. :)

    Stanza 2:
    "All my hopes... Like a raindrop trampled to the ground
    I'm a mysterious boy forsaken in my frigid life
    No one was there to hold me in their arms...
    No one was there when I was tormented by my former love..."

    -- Again with the rain. Love imagery here.. 'raindrop.. trampled to the ground'.. leaves a sad feeling here. very well written. Haha.. Love the word 'frigid' -- well used. This is really sad, as if the character/person your writing about is expressing their feelings to me, and as if their head is bowed in depression, telling me, reaching out to me.. :) Very well done. :)

    Stanza 3:
    "As I am nearing my destination
    Someone beautiful stands there like a tree
    She shines fiercely like a star in the skies
    She's a descended angel from heaven."

    -- All of a sudden there is a change. And how you have introduced this is brilliant. Love the word choice here too.. 'shines fiercely'.. and also the metaphor, 'like a tree' or is it a similie? ROFL.. I forgot.. But it's well done :)

    Stanza 4:
    "As I neared her I felt a warm wind past through me
    The breeze carried her sweet angelic scent
    She shined like the sun in this misty day
    I wish I could have her here in my arms."

    -- Naww.. such a sweet stanza.. :) The word choice again is brilliant... however, a suggestion.. maybe, because you use the word 'rain' and 'raindrop' in the previous stanzas and it left me with a 'sad-rainy-day' feeling. So, *suggestion* maybe, change the word 'misty' to 'rainy' because to me, it now sounds like he just came from a horror movie [rofl.] so, rather it sound scary, maybe bring that sad feeling back in? :) Otherwise, love the word choices. :) Brilliantly done. :)

    Stanza 5:
    "I came closer to her... I could see her eyes
    Suddenly I realized it was just my sheer delusion
    I look up in the rainy sky and cried...
    It was just my heart's desire to love someone..."

    -- Nawww.. It ended! :( The imagery is beautiful in this. My personal opinion is that maybe you finished it too quickly.. maybe another stanza could be added, a little like the repeat of the first one? For example:

    "I walk alone on this rainy day
    The tears that roll down my face
    I hold myself as tight as I can
    As she disappears on this arctic road"

    Maybe?

    Just a suggestion :)

    Poem Conclusion:
    Very well written. I loved it, however, I felt it stopped to abruptly.. Maybe a nice finish will top it off :) Well done!

    -- Your work is too good to be left unwritten :)
    If you have words bugging you in your mind, WRITE THEM DOWN :) It would be good either way.. as all of your work is! :)

    Well done! And Good Luck! :)

    [ 5 / 5 ]

    All the best,

    Nicole
