broken heart

I gave you my heart and you broke it,
millions of shattered pieces with dying blood,
Then you threw it back at me but all I said was
"keep it were done."

aye. you need to fix the grammar in this. you need a comma after me in the last line.
"Then you threw it back at me, but all I said was"

Also, Then shouldn't be capitalized unless you put a period after blood. If you do put a period, it's not a good idea to start a new sentence with Then. Uh..


We're not were, were is like.. we were able to, we're is we are able to. there should also be a comma, because it feels like a pause to me.
"keep it, we're done"

other than that it was a well written, but short, poem. its got a nice tone to it, I've not quite heard a heart break poem like this, but then again I don't usually read poems :) sorry if it seems a bit harsh.

Hey,
I'm not so sure about the grammar but I really liked the poem. The ending was very clever, Surprising.
Well done, Keep writing.

First of all, you need to do two reviews before you post anything of your own, then keep a 2 to 1 ratio. The more reviews you do, the more people are going to want to critique your stuff.

Okay. Now to your poem.

It was a little short, and I would have liked you to elaborate more. It just seemed like a little piece of a longer poem. The imagry in it was good, though.

Then you threw it back at me but all I said was
"keep it were done."

You ignored punctuation in these last two lines. It should be:
Then you threw it back at me, ut all I said was
"Keep it. We're done."

Just add on a little, and I think that you have a good poem.

Let me know if you post anything new.
