    this is really sad and depressing, you will find love some day
    always have hope, and open up yourself to this world full of love

  • I like this, it's to the point. But a little... Hmmm, It's hard to describe but a third of the way in, it get a little... But anyway, I love the rest. Good luck in Renesmee Black's contest,

      Thanks Shark

      Life always shocks me. I don't understand how two people can reconcile their death camp true nature and then decide to bring another life into this sad pointless world.

  • Wow

    Seems like someone never made lemonaide with the lemons he was given. Well written and to the point.

    I wouldn't count this as a story, not even a short. You say a whole lot of nothing with this, merely state events. You can get the stylistic quality your going for, and the poetry stanza style you want while still adding a lot more to it. You're trying to force emotion into it but the reader isn't getting any. And your last line or two is really cliched I hate to say. I'm sorry to be a harsh critter, but you need to expand and go a little deeper with this.

      Thanks Fimmy

      I totally agree, it really was very weak.

    Wow, nice. Although, I couldn't really feel any strong emotion in this poem. I felt a little sad for the man though.
