Thread: Please Read?

    Please Read?

    Hey, this is something that I only started yesterday and haven't done much work on. I would really like some feedback....

    "I'm sick of being miserable,
    I'm sick of being sad,
    I'm sick of haunting memories,
    Of happiness I had.

    I miss your little jokes,
    I miss not knowing what I'd find,
    I miss our perfect silences,
    The way you read my mind.

    I hate that little divided us,
    I hate my interfering pride,
    I hate your quiet callousness
    And the fact that now I hide.

    I wish that tomorrow will be better
    I wish that everything was great
    I wish our friendship could be saved,
    I wish for no more hate."

    I think periods would work better than commas at the end of some of the lines. On line 9, I think "that" should be "what". I didn't understand line 9: what fact was hidden? Line 10 could be made a bit shorter.

    Overall, I liked the rhyme and you seemed to use correct meter, but I don't know what caused the problem between the two of you and that might be interesting to explore.

    I've changed the word 'interfering' to meddling and it seems to flow better. Thanks a lot for your help, I haven't wrote a poem in years and this one was quite interesting to try. Many Thanks, B.
