OK... so this is a simple one... I purposefully used "how" repeatedly, hoping I could transmit the despair. Anyway here it goes! Comments are welcome (even the harsh ones) to help me improve!

How?


How can I tell you

if you don't wanna listen?

What can I do

If you don't care?

How can I ever dare

If we are not ment to be?

How could you ever love me?




How can I live happily

If all I want is to cry?

How can I spend hours

Asking God why?

How can I put a smile on my face

If inside I'm dying?

How can I laugh

If inside I'm fading?



How can I pretend

When all i want is to the pain to end?

How can I make face to my fears

When my heart is full of tears?

Its nice feels like first love loss type of thing. I like it great job on making the words flow they had a nice ring.

I liked this, simple, not flogged down with too many words (I hate it when people do that). I really liked how there was no real rule to the rhyme scheme, it made it feel more natural. The one thing I noticed: You spelled 'meant' wrong in the 1st stanza. :D Good job!



If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
