I know, it sucks, feedback?

I can't stop thinking about u

I didn't think u would become such a big part of my life 

that one night in Vegas 

It was only about 200 miles

Now it's over 800

It kills me knowing ur so far away

Why is life so hard sometimes

Why can't it be like a fairytale 

Always working out in the end

Maybe it will

Who knows

As nickelback says, "someday, somehow, I'm gonna make it right but not right now. I know you're wondering when."

Life is like a book you are writing in pen,

You can't go back and change it. 

If we keep writing like this, things wont turn out so good

Let's change it from a Hollywood horror to a fairytale

Update:

:] thanks guys

Update 2:

Hey, this is my first poem by the way

Update 3:

By the way Tim, I can't. Readthe dang poem. I'm over 800 miles away. I've been getting weekend jobs at airports and stuff to try and raise money for an airline ticket. My dad went into the hospital so I had to help pay for his bills and now I have to start all over again. U can't say I'm sitting around on my lazy ***

    It's really moany for the first half, then it starts on about 'let's try?'.

    Why would you want to try with such a whinger?

    Your lack of decisiveness is also not very inspiring, and the crowbarred in nickleback lyrics need dropping, too: 'I'm gonna make it right (good), BUT NOT RIGHT NOW (why the hell not right now you lazy fool?).

    In short, yeah it does suck, sorry.

    I think you should forget it and start again. Aim to be positive, confident (if you don't believe in it you'll never make them), and modest- it's more romantic to be straightforward than trying to sound clever by putting metaphors and song lyrics in, unless it really sounds natural at that point.

    ps You can still make it right, dude, just coz ur not there. Aren't you trying to prove that by writing the poem? No offence, I'm not calling YOU a fool, just saying putting that song in makes you sound like one

    Its a good start. Its free verse. If I were you, rather than vertical, short sentences,

    I would organize it into 3 paragraphs and then one separate sentence at the end as

    a climax. It's a good start because you write from your heart.

    I would use full words rather than "ur". The more you write, the more you teach

    yourself. I felt the emotion, I felt your pain. I liked it.
