Take over my shadow Broke my body and mind Stole my choices My voice is... Can't sing I can't die A half-life A cursed life
Heart cold Missing soul Stole my innocence Now won't say good-bye Let me die
You're killing me Chilling me Willing me alive Let me die Let me die! And I swear I won't cry Let me die
Sing our song Our old song When you will me alive Use my voice And I'll cry 'Cuz you won't let me die Let me fly Floating by Until you drag me down Where the flames spin around In a hole in the ground Where I'll live Where I'll cry Where you won't let me die
Stole my death, not my life Stole my gun, stole my knife Stole the things that were mine You're a theif! Stole my time Stole my feelings Stole my hate It's too late Torn apart By your mind Stole my time
Drink my youth Drink my soul Drink my blood Filled with cold Drink my breath Break my heart Build me up From the start Make perfection in your eyes Rebuild me Let me die Let me die Let me feel Let me cry Just pretend I'm alive Just pretend that you're mine
Or you could be kind Leave my shadow Leave my mind Leave my heart Give me death A new start Give the time Give the hate That you stole When you coveted my fate It is not yet too late Please, my love, please, my mate Let me free Let me fly Let me see Say good-bye Bye to us Bye to love Bye to hate Bye because
Let me go Let me sing Let my inner bells ring My heart soar Mind unbound You, nowhere to be found
Au revoir J'adore toi Let me die

wow this is intense, though I do not like all the talk on dying........
the poem is emotional and full of great expression.
Just dont give in to the dying part of it!

Hello,
I find that only a handful of people appreciate this style of poetry. I have nick-named it linear or line poetry, and I actually have an appreciation of it. I personally have written a few, but have yet to post one. I really like this one and can see why it is one of your favorites, but I hope you would appreciate a little creative criticism (you can tell me screw-- if you want -LOL) . The thing i find important with this style of write is in the flow as read from line to line. With such short lines, each line impacts the next much more significantly when read by another person in particular. I can see how you have written as you felt, but some of the repeated lines break this rhythm of line to line balance. I really think you could improve this flow with minimal adjustments. If you want an example - the last 3 stanzas of this poem flow much better than the prior. All in all this is a very good write and I really like it, but I think if you went through and read it with fresh eyes and felt the meter you could improve its rhythm and its quality. Please don’t take offense - I could be full of bs - but it is such a good poem that has even better potential if you could see what I mean. (again feel free to say screw---)
