Don't know what to do or what to say,
lost everywhere I go and still nothing to say,
don't know what direction I should take,
or what mistake I made,
stuck in every moment that I make,
Wishing that it would all go away,
I'm buried knee high deep,
in mud that makes you sink,
cant find a way to get out of this place,
tired of trying to explain,
so confused on what to do,
and of course still lost on what to say
tired of trying to escape when my mind is trying to think,
I'M LOST LOST lost.......

It sounds like you were just ranting to be honest. I like the idea and some of your lines are really good, but others are confusing. I say you rewrite the poem somewhat. Also in the end I get your trying to display emotion but I feel like you yelling at me which makes me want to tell you to shut up...

Don't know what to do,
lost everywhere I go,
don't know what direction I should take,
stuck in every moment that I make, The entire poem doesn't rhyme except these to line.

I'm buried knee high deep "knee high deep," doesn't really sound right, Maybe "knee deep" or knee high" might sound better, but that could just me.

I'M LOST LOst lost.......

The rhyming kind of stops part way through the poem. Apart from that I thought it was a good poem. Keep writing! :D

Hello jolene15,

This wasn't a fantastic poem, it was good but not fantastic and I think you could improve this in many ways because it was just a it simple and kind of bored me toward the end. I did like the general idea though and the choice of topic but the actual poem wasn't really of a very high quality. I would also suggest making this longer because it was very short and I'm pretty certain that you can expand this and perhaps make it more advanced.

Don't know what to do, <This is a good line to introduce the poem but it's very simple and basic
lost everywhere I go,< This is a good start but you need to build on it is so plain and a bit boring to read
don't know what direction I should take,< That is better just add more description
stuck in every moment that I make,< That is the best line in the poem and it shows potential
I'm buried knee high deep< It states something but it doesn't actually say what the person is buried in
cant find a way to get out of this place,< Very simple and not at all poetic
so confused on what to do,< This is good and it is clear and definite
tired of trying to escape when my mind is trying to think!!!!!!< Why the excessive punctuation?
I'M LOST LOst lost.......< Again excessive punctuation, also can you capitalize the whole thing or leave it in lowercase


This is a good start but your poem kind of just stays at one awkward stage and nothing really happens. So you might want to make this longer and more enticing and good to read. Keep on writing you have a good start and when you have developed this I'm sure you will have an excellent piece of writing.

Hello,
I doubt you will take the time to look at this signature, you are all busy people and I respect that, but if you do know this. Every bit of criticism on my writing has helped and every bit of advice you have given me has also helped. So thank you, for everything.

Well this is a great effort.

I like how you've incorporated a lot into something so small. This is a good start but try to make things a bit longer and more detailed.

"Don't know what to do or what to say,
lost everywhere I go and still nothing to say,
don't know what direction I should take,
or what mistake I made,"


This first part could with some fixing, because i fee that you haven't introduced what topic, or what setting, or what climax your are trying to give to the audience.

The rest is fairly straight forward and good, so no change needed there.

"tired of trying to escape when my mind is trying to think,
I'M LOST LOST lost......."

I think that you could change this ending line to something more creative and out there.

But overall this a very good start. So just keep writing!
