Hello asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 5 years ago

Do you think this is a good poem ?

It's pretty intense I know . So I didn't want to read it to close family / friends so random peoples opinions are better lol

things will get better

I keep repeating to myself

while on the inside I know I need some help

I'm twisting I wish I could go back to being twelve

all my happiness is in storage on a ******* shelf

why is it so hard existing in this ****** up place

my scarred heart keeps on coexisting I feel so misplaced

why is everything have to be defined with stupid race

I swear half the people on this planet are a ******* waste

and don't you dare say it's just bad taste , humanity has lead astray were a god damn disgrace

we might as well put our problems on display because evalution has gone the **** away , and no it's not delay , were dead to the world everything wants us to go away

worried about the test you'll be dead rotting flesh , decay in another ************* few decades

so **** the grades

    First of all, I get the asterisks, but there are so many ways to express the same poetically, withought hiding obvious expletives.

    Watch EWD, Extra word disorder, filler words not needed, there are a few in this.

    Watch tense and grammar. That can be tweaked in this.

    "while on the inside I know I need some help" Drop "some"

    "I'm twisting I wish I could go back to being twelve" Try

    I'm twisting, wishing, I could return to age twelve.

    I'll stop there, but with some thought, this can be as intense, without sounding rushed, or immature. If it's teen angst or anger, the same can be said, even alluding to your issues, which by the way, are not at all explained.

    It is different and good..

    You do not need to use the same word more then once

    or any variation of it.Formatting it would help immensely.

    Capitalization is also needed.
