A hole in your heart

If it happend tonight,
would you go?
Would you start a fight?

Your body feels broken apart,
a stolen soul,
a hole in your heart.

If your head is in the clouds,
where are you looking....
now?

If your feet are on the ground...
Don't ask how,
but don't look down.

If your voice is gone....
you can't say anything now.
Can't shout it out.

If you are my only one,
is my life over?
Is my life done?

The rhymes made me think of this more as song lyrics than a poem; like they're something to be spoken or sung rather than read.

^ I do so like this idea very much! I wish you'd concentrated on this for the whole poem rather than make a passing reference! :D

That's another thing that made me think of song lyrics; the ideas are more general than specific and focused, as is the word choice. As to the generality, it's a tad cliche, not being able to live without the other person; and there's been no expansion on it to breathe into it new life. I'd suggest picking one of the many ideas here and running with it.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions ^_^

So should I leave this here, or move to lyrics?

I guess if you want to, I can move it. :P

Anyway! I liked the other poem better, partly because this seems a little unconnected, as if the stanzas don't belong with each other. We can't really see what's happening to the narrator, or see what the narrator is seeing, and that's a bit of the problem. Show us what is going on more and then we can react better to the poem and be more emotionally involved. :)

And rate your poetry, darn it! *prods*

Hey,
I really liked this, it was different, in a good way. I was a bit confused as to what it was about but I did really like it.
The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid, and deeds left undone.

I agree with leja. This poem would be a great part of a song.

I thought everything flowed quite nicely. Just don't forget to capitalize the first letter in each stanza!

Well done!
