Guilt

by Spirit   Jan 13, 2008


How many times must I tell you,
before you realize how I feel?
How did last night happen?
Today feels so unreal.

How many tears must drench my face,
until you come to understand?
Because trust me this is something,
I never would've planned?

How long must you torture me,
till you believe in what I say?
How can you act like this?
Please don't walk away.

Look, Ok I'm Sorry!
There I've said it once again.
But is their some cruel meaning
for you putting trough strain.

Don't you realize I'd do anything,
to be able to take that back?
I feel like the idiot, who's
knocked everything off track.

I'm sorry, for what I did to you,
for how I betrayed your trust.
But could you please just look at me
not turn away in disgust?

I can't remember how it happened?
but I'm sure you wouldn't want to hear.
Right now I just feel horrid?
Probably made that crystal clear.

Without you here in my life,
my world is in reverse.
You might not want to know this,
but my sanity, can't get worse.

I never said anything,
cause I didn't want you to see
how I had screwed up everything.
Will you please come back to me.

    "Because trust me this is something,
    I never would've planned?"
    -You don't need a question mark here. You aren't questioning anything anymore. Your basically stating, not questioning.

    "But is their some cruel meaning
    for you putting trough strain."

    -I think you need to put a question mark here, you are questioning something, not stating a fact.

    "I can't remember how it happened?
    but I'm sure you wouldn't want to hear.
    Right now I just feel horrid?
    Probably made that crystal clear."

    -Here is another example of places where you don't need question marks, however for some reason you put them in there. For example.. "I can't remember how it happened?" You put a question mark. Why? Yes, you can't remember how it happened. But, that's a fact. "You can't remember how it happened." That is probably how you want to put it. That question mark questioned me as a reader, as to why you would put it there. It's almost like you were questioning yourself if that was a good line or not, or if you needed a question mark or not. That totally confused me. However, if you used a question mark you'd be asking someone else. Like. youd say something like.. "Do you remember how it happened?"
    That's a question. You're wondering something that happened and how it ended up the way it did.

    "Without you here in my life,
    my world is in reverse.
    You might not want to know this,
    but my sanity, can't get any worse."
    -For some reason this stanza really stood out to me the most. I liked the rhyming. Yeah, maybe it was a little forced, but overall I just really liked this stanza.

    Overall, a really nice message again. You feel guilty. You want to take back all that you once did. However, you need to work on your puncuation. You confused me with your question marks that didn't need to be there. 5/5.

    I like one thing a lot about this poem, the fact that you managed to express honest emotions and create very sorrowful tone in whole piece is really great.
    Anyway I must suggest, of course just my opinion, that this poem could be better with some unique metaphors, but all in all I really love that you described your feelings on good yet very simple way. Very original poem, I enjoy in it.
