Description:


I'm sure the poem itself is for the most part self-explanatory. But I don't truly hold this piece as one of my best so I would really appreciate any comments as I'm willing for any change anyone might see necessary.

Thanks..


Second View Romance V.1



Slip on the headphones
A clock screaming 2 in the morning
But I've got nothing tomorrow
Crack eyes open with needle points again

From the moment I felt
I knew that something wasn't right
Thinking you,
and me
were like one heartbeat

That moment you laughed
And the smile your lips wore
The vision kept me up all night
A body in my bed
Without the ounce of rest
Contemplating the sight of you

But when the moment came...

That moment that I felt
I knew that something wasn't right
Rip my heart out
Throw it at you
Hoping you feel just like I do

Come tomorrow I'll already be awake
Thinking of your face
In that spot of a demented mind

Another day
--Another throw
Throwing my heart at you
These feelings lingering,
like I want you to.

  I don't understand why being so young makes you talented; I was you're age once and I wasn't talented. What I believe these other writers meant to say is that you're a good writer. There are parts of this I love; starts off strong, but it could use a little viagra from then on; needs more staying power. Your tenses are also a bit off. These are my suggestion; hope they help you.

(Contemplating?) Sight is with most of us since the begining of existance; seems odd to contemplate such a thing. I would guess that you instead were sort of basking; in reverie; of her beauty)

But when the moment came...

That moment that I felt
I knew that something wasn't right
Ripping my heart out
I threw it at you
Hoping you feel just like I do( this image is a bit cliché)

Come tomorrow I'll already be awake
Thinking of your face
Placed in my demented mind

Another day
-Another throw
Throwing my heart at youThese feelings lingering,
like I want you to.

(consider other words to replace throw; to give it more feeling; hurling ect would add a little more emotion and variety. I thank you and I hope this was helpful peace

  I must say my friend I agree with MMISS
For someone of your age I am quite impressed with your writing(don't let that go to your head j/k) I can totaly relate to this piece, all to many nights I've spent lying in bed trying (not) to think about some one. When you care about some one in a romantic way it seems you can never get them out of your head, and that you never truly want them out of your head. I think you've painted an image of solitude and wanting that most can relate to. What impresses me in regards to your work is how you paint these images-

This sounds like the beginning of a song to me. I shall read the second post under this name, keep letting it flow my friend!-John
