Undecided Question
What do you think of this poem is it ok?
I really don't know, I have no idea, Why am I here?Why do I exist? I'd Rather just die than live by and by.
But no that is a sin.
But I wonder what could have been.
If I actually pulled the knife closer to my skin
Swallowed all those pills in just one gulp.
But no I know if i killed myself i will be hurting another.
Yeah this sounds weird (no one cares for me) but i do have a mother.
She loves me and apparently if i die it'll hurt her too much. Day-after-day. Month-after-month. Year-after-year.
That's one reason… I have fear.
I am afraid I will be a murderer, not for me but for someone I love.
And also If I commit suicide, Will I go up above?
That is one question. If I commit suicide will i ever see heaven?
Or will i go to hell like the taste of those hot dogs at seven eleven?
that is some of it what do you guys think? Tell me if i should ask about the whole poem. Please be truthful but not hurtful<3<3<3<3 thanks

it sounds like an honest poem but it doesn't really grab me and pull me in… if you are going to write about death you need to be a bit more descriptive and dramatic to allow the reader to feel the pain/depression/sorrow
OMG i am going to kill the stupid spammer above me! lol. No one wants to buy your stupid shoes.Anyway, Ithe idea of this poem is great. It's a really good start, I just think the structure could use some work, like making it flow more. Smooth it out and stuff.It's a beautiful idea and if you edited it some, changed up some words, cut out some parts, pieced things together a bit more smoothly, it will be amazing. The idea behind it is great, and that will make it a stunning poem in the end. You're writing is honest and it shows through. Work out the kinks and it will only improve. I especially love: "But I wonder what could have beenIf I actually pulled the knife closer to my skin"Those words are haunting. You have something here. Good work.
One last thing:You have a lot of contradictions in the poem, like you're changing your mind while writing. I like that, it makes it very honest but it needs to be a little easier to follow. "But no that is a sin.But I wonder what could have been" is a good start but could be edited. Source(s): good luck
