Hmm... I liked it, I think the structure and rhythm could use a little work though. There were some parts where it was a little hard to wrap your tongue around, like the first line.
I was a little sad that with a poem of this length, us readers never found out why exactly the character killed him/herself. So I guess I just would have liked a little more character info relative to the length.Nothing can ever really be the same again
#800000 ">Likes: I'll just quote my favorite parts. I had a friend that committed suicide, so these always have some meaning to me.
but now its you that is making the excuses
you hiding your remedy
for surly they will try to take it away
and they you die.
maybe if you told them you wouldn’t be hooked
a slave to the remedy.
#800000 ">I especially like that last line.It just seems really powerful, and to the point, almost a bit humorous.Maybe if you would have listened to your mother
when she said everything would be okay
maybe you never would have made the deal with the devil
never would have trapped yourself in quick sand
slowly being pulled under into a world of suffering
down you go.
Maybe... but you didn’t.
You let a demon take control of you
condemning you to a life of hiding behind sleeves,
You can’t take back what you did, the damage is done
you can’t turn around and go back to the life you lead
but you can take a left turn off the path
make a new road way and leave the elixir behind
it wont be easy, not by a long shot
but you can do it.
#BF4080 ">Overall: I really liked it. The message, the word choice, the overall story. It was good, you are a talented author and I love reading your work. I'll get to your other one later today and drop you a title suggestion.
