there was a shrill scream, blurred movements. shaken to the core. there was thick red blood, oozing with ease, staining the world. there was an attempt to kill. successful or not? noone knows. it hurts like hell. but i'm still alive. you didnt stab my body... you stabbed my soul... |
Merry Meet again Sanjhana. I understood the pain in the poem, but it was hard to read. The flow was not there at all. The poem just seemed to broken. I believe this could be an awesome poem with some work. My favorite stanza was the last You didn't stab my body.... you stabbed my soul. I think you also need to work on puctuation. The ? didn't fit in stanza 3 line 2. Also capitalization. I like your poetry. And these are just suggestions. I hope I didn't offend you.
