Nothing

My mind is blank,
Always letting me forget something,
or even erase my thoughts and dreams.1

My soul is gone.
Never having to breathe,
or feel a touch of love.2

My heart is broken.
I feel nothing from my loved ones,
never in my life cared of the thoughts of how they felt
or what they needed.3


I have nothing.

    AMAZING! This so does not suck!! You are too hard on yourself. The flow and scheme both worked awesomely. I am amazed this is your first and I hope to read more. It did not seem forced at all. You did a great job. I liked the title and the layout. The idea behind it is so deep and vivid as you read the short, simple, sweet, poem. I really liked it. Keep up the AMAZING work!

    Sad and Good

    Hey! I can only hope that this poem is not really about you, 'cause it's verry sad. However, it is good though. Well, it definitely is for a first poem. Just keep on writing I would say. I can't really give you something to improve, because I'm not verry good myself I just wanted to let you know I thought it was pretty good...

    Its not bad, better then when I started out, and I was about your age. Its a little simple, and there's not a flow, or pattern to it. Its clear, and emotional, but you should work on your rhyme. When you write say what your writing aloud, and listen to how it sounds as you say it. You have talent, you just need to develope it.

    I think you did fine. The flow is a little off but it has deep feeling to it. Don't give up.

    Meh, I guess there doesn't seem to be a real syllable pattern anywhere.... but the meaning behind the poem is great and you really got across the desired emotion. I've felt that way before too

    It really isn't that bad ^^

    Ok, well first off, like everyone else, I have to tell you that you do not suck at poetry. I write mostly poetry myslef and I think that the sentiment behind this is very deep. I used to be a member of a creative writing club and the first rule of the club was your not allowed to critisize your own work. I think this is sound advice (although I dont always stick to it myself, lol).
    So what did I like about this poem. Well to start with I like how the irregular line lenghs portay the sense of emptyness of this poem. It makes it feel sort of disjointed (in a good way) and I think that gets across the feeling of the poem that the person has nothing. I also think that the language you used was very effective at getting across the emotion of the piece. It is also a good length. Some poems go on and on but this one was concise yet heartfelt. Well done my lovely and dont put yourself down so much. I really enjoyed reading this.

    In all honesty, I am a story writer myself, but I read poetry from time to time, and I don't think this is bad at all... Although the messege is depressing, it expresses your thought and feelings. Good job and keep writing!

    i think it is amazing! and i can really feel the emotion in the poem, the helplessness of feeling useless, like nothing.

    i can really relate to this poem!
