I'm not a poet so I'll just leave a comment.

Perfect execution.

Perfect description of a perfect-because-he's-imperfect-like-the-rest-of-us person.

My favourite is anger turning into emotion because it's more than just fixing the problem, it's turning anger into part of something great.

There is a joke in here about strikeing through a violent pose ;)

Good job!

This is certainly different then the other poem, Ocean, I reviewed for you. The other one had a rhythm and flow to it and this one is just all around different. I see that you wrote different emotions and feelings down and crossed out the one that was opposite of it. I'm intrigued as to why you chose to do this. The poem itself is called Gerard, which I'm assuming by looking at your profile, it's Gerard Way (nice taste, btw) but I'm failing to see what he has to do with the poem. Overall, it was interesting. It was powerful and confusing all at once. Short, sweet and to the point. I'd like to know what your thoughts are on the poem and where you were headed with it.

Keep writing!

I called it Gerard because I've been thinking about him a lot, and this is how I feel when I think about MCR and their music.

Thanks for the review!

Hi, Sylar!

Can I ask... what motivated you to use "Sylar" as your username? I keep thinking you like Heroes Tv show :) hee hee.

Anywayyyy... I am here to review this lovely piece for you. (I'm a poet too. Haha).

I loved the uniqueness of this poem. It was really creative and I enjoyed it's newness and how it differs from others. Nice use of the BB codes as well! I like the strike throughs as well to show a reflection in how your feelings, actions, ect; it was refreshing.

I cannot say much on this because it is so perfect <3

Thanks for posting it!
