The party goes on
there's a full club
just having fun
things sore through the air
suddenly, your muscles freeze
when you hear glass shatter

the is music obnoxiously loud
music comes booming out
and crashing down
neighbors cry for peace and silence
but it comes out louder

they dance for hours
showing off there moves
left then right
not thinking
just doing

the bar is crowded
with drunk people
crying for more beer
dyeing for alcohol

suddenly, you stop and freeze
everything goes blank
the hairs on the back of
your neck go up
your cold
lips purple and blue

your drunk
then your free falling
down onto the ground
and your knocked out

This is okay - but I must admit that I'm not really sure what you actually mean at the end with your reference to dead parents. Am I missing something really obvious?

Anyway, you've made a few mistakes;

the is music obnoxiously loud


It should be either

the music is obnoxiously loud

or

there is obnoxiously loud music

neighbors cry for peace in silence


peace in silence doesn't make sense. Do you mean peace and quiet or something?

showing off there moves


their - as in belonging to them - not there

dyeing for alcohol


dying not dyeing

party with grow


Do you mean grown?

parents party


you need an apostrophe - parents' party

Also I assume that the reason you've spelt realise with a z is because that's how it's done in the US.

This could do with a lot more work - you seemed to be following a rough pattern of 4-6 lines with your stanzas until the really long one at the end, which doesn't really work that well - either heve a structure for them or don't; no switching part-way through - and like I said I don't really understand where you're going with this.

Keep writing,
Bkwrm :)

The party goes on,
there's a full house.
Just having fun.
Things sore through the air.
Suddenly, your muscles freeze
when you hear glass shatter

The is music obnoxiously loud.
Music comes booming out
and crashing down.
Neighbors cry for peace and silence.
But it comes out louder.

They dance for hours,
showing off their moves.
Left then right,
not thinking,
just doing.

The bar is crowded
with drunk people
crying for more beer,
dying for alcohol.

Then you realize that
it's just a crazy, typical
party with grown
and mature parents.
But suddenly
you get cold,
lips blue,
and the hairs on the back
of your neck going up.
You see that that was your
parent's party,
and they died that night.


This was a very confusing poem. Was the person at a bar or a house party. And what did dying parents have anything to do with this. I'm not really grasping your meaning here. You didn't h ave any punctuation and that messed up the poem. I would say you need a little more work on this.

You're using present and past tense. You need to pick which one you want to write in. It gets very confusing.
