Emotionaly drained

by Kaila   Oct 10, 2007


The feelings of sadness are no longer there,
instead I feel nothing I'm hollow I'm bare,
the saddened part of me has washed away,
like a tidal wave it carries it astray.

My bloodshot angered eyes have turned to pure white,
I no longer want to stand here and pick a fight,
My clenched fists have relaxed to my sides,
my emotions are no longer like roller coaster rides.

My glowing smile has turned to a straight line,
and my happy thoughts have all resigned,
my contagious laughter has turned monotone,
I've given my happiness to someone to loan.

I have been drained of anything I've ever felt,
all the pain and happiness the problems I've delt,
It's been sucked away from my own vacuum cleaner,
and has been stuffed away in a secret chamber.

    This was another amazing write, but not as good as the one i have read before it. The word my is repeated too much, it takes away from the flow, the word choice was great, very deep, the emotion was clear, but not as strong as it should have been, the flow was a little off but nothing major, try rereading the poem out loud a couple of days after you haven't read it. other than that excellent job 4/5

    This is powerful and thoughts through it are greatly expressed. I can relate to this piece. Your rhymes are great, but you repeated word "my" too many times which disturbed the flow in some places. All in all, this is good piece, it sounds sincere, like it's written straight from the heart which is really effective.

    I suggest working on punctuation; using commas and semi-colans (sp?) and all that . The poem was great, really, but it makes it hard to read it right when it comes to lines like this one:
    Instead I feel nothing I'm hollow I'm bare,
    When it comes to have that in one line as a whole, it doesn't make sense without a ; or , here or there to know when there's a small pause between some words.
    I thought your word choice here was great -- really conveying emotion -- that is, until it got to "vacuum cleaner." When you use such simple words, and then throw in "vacuum cleaner," it just threw me off.
    Overall, I feel like this could use some slight editing -- a couple grammar wrongs here and there -- but overall, well done.
