Your poem's are indeed good. This one has a surreal feeling, give me visuals and stuff. I like it, you got talent. But you already know that I hope. :)

Wow! I loved that one Fox! The way you wrote it was ... wow, very clever. It seemed to gather pace along with the frantic thoughts of someone fearful of their grip on reality and each small stanza was like drawing a breath, it fluctuated and grew lesser and sharper just like one does when having a panic attack!

Wow!

The end, that 'or...' that was brilliant. It turned the whole 'darkness' before it on its head. You really are left questioning was it real or not? Its almost devious at the end... 'you and me and that thing make three,' for some reason that leapt out at me. It plays to everyone I think because we all at some point, if only as kids, been afraid of the unknown lurking there in the dark and its the unseen 'thing' that terrifies us the most! Its the basis of any good horror story! The ryhme was good, I especially admire the way you didnt fall into the second line 'repeat' or having each and every single sentence rhyme and echo the sentence above, cause that has a tendency to make some writings seem almost juvenille... well, depends on the context, but the rhyme made it flow and gave it a sense of unity. It wasn't all over the place even if it wasn't typically structured. But this style of writing is showing maturity as well as playing to a sense of childlike wonder and fear, and yeah... ****... it was just awesome.

Really. No ****. One of your best. Sorry I took so long to get my **** over and read it! And sorry for the rant, but it was SWISH!! I know I sound like an eighth grade english teacher when I rant like this but its what I get from it when I read good writing and wouldn't you rather me tell you honestly what I think in a constructive manner than just go along with the crowd and say it was great (even if they are still very right in their opinions ;) ??

Anyway, more like this and you will win the competition Foxxy, hands down!

:thumbsup:

Keep it up :D

Hollow

Emptiness is in me

An echo of a soul

But I’m not free

I am a hollow being.

No emotion

No excitement

Hollow

They have torn my soul from me

Bringing me to this life

Took the thought

Stole my mind

Left me a hollow vessel

Wandering the earth.

They saw me as a threat

Saw the potential for greatness

And took it from me

Ripped me from my fate

And left me here

As a hollow thing

I do not feel

I do not cry

Hollow is ****

Yet they do not know

Everything that I did

Even though they took it all

They do not understand

Yet here I am

Hollow

:O a little dark for me but nice poem must say good work :)
thanks for saying that even if its dark for your taste, that it is good work....it's good that you're willing to read stuff that is darker than your taste and still like the quality of the writing

Tell me…

Chorus

Tell me what it means

To be hurt like I am

Tell me what it’s like

To be loved like you are

Tell me why I’m here

Pushed away from the world.


Verse One


People say this is how it should be

Keep on about trivial worries

Saying they were hurt

And that they aren’t loved

Yet they don’t know

What it means

To be pushed away from the world

So I beg youuuu

Just tell me what its like

To be in the limelight

Chorus

Verse Two

Tired of the way

People look at you?

Trying to get out of the light

Wishing you weren’t here.

Please tell me now

How you feel now

Welcome to my world

Now you know what its like

To be pushed away like me

Chorus

Verse Three

Still can’t take it

Complaining of the life you once had

Telling of the hurt

Or bragging of the love you have

So why now do you tell

Of the lies you have told

Why do you care

About us,

The ones you pushed away.

Chorus
