Hey ya'll! So, I wanted to share a poem with you guys. Once again, please provide honest feedback. Poetry is not my strong suit, but I gave it a try. I kind of forced the rhyme scheme a little. If it sucks PLEASE tell me :)
The single chord haunted
my mind.
Like the soundtrack to the tragedy,
making me blind.
Through the tears on my face
I tried to smile,
but the phony imitation
stretched the mile.
You can still see the face
of the person you lost
and what they said
before they left.

LOVE the first two stanzas. The last one breaks it, though, since it doesn't rhyme, and it loses the intensity. "Cost" rhymes, though - that might fit better.
I really like it. I'm not completely sure I agree with UC1, though, about the intensity breaking. I think the different feel of the last stanza almost fits you know, because...Oh, I don't know. But it's good. ya.
Yea i reallly enjoyed this
i felt it was poetry and a story
so thats good

I wanna know who it's about ;)
Ok, i do think the rhyme scheme sounds a little forced, but you recognize that. The nice thing is that you can tell you were really thinking while you were writing it - how you wanted to structure it, what emotions you were aiming to evoke, etc. Keep at it, definitely.
And i agree with Kenz (sorry Kat). The last stanza works for me.
It's been five weeks. Time to update boy.
I remember...these last two posts were within 5 days. I thought there was hope. But no...
