peace at last

Published March 4, 2011

dive in
deep mysteries await
although
you have no fate
no conclusion comes
flash
pain as loud
as drums
heart beating
lost in deep blue
drowning
flash
in lost truth
hope
fate
dreams fade
in the mist
as I drowned

love is as strong as the winds that pulled you down so strong it pulls you back up ~dreamer~

Peace At Last



Dive in
deep mysteries await
although
you? have no fate.- The rest of the poem refers to "I", it gets confusing when you introduce another party that wasn't there before...
No conclusion comes
flash
pain as loud
as drums.
(My?)Heart beating
lost in deep blue
drowning.
Flash
in lost truth,
hope,
(and) fate
dreams fad(ed)
in the mist
as I drowned.


Nice poem, just try to make it longer and help the reader understand exactly *who* is talking. Reveal a little something, to make it pop. Make your poem special. That's all.
Punctuation is key, my friend.


Keep on writing!

The poem needs punctuation to dictate some kind of tempo: At the moment it is just a mesh of words in a column. However you do have a strong opening, the two d's of dive and deep work very well.



I'd be a quote vigilante. A literary Batman. Someone had better be quoting me now!
