I'm just looking to get a little feed back on my poems and hopefully that will help me grow as a writer. I'm hoping to write novels but poetry has always been a passion of mine. Whether writing poetry or novels or whatever it is that you do, you're pouring your heart and soul onto a piece of paper for all the world to see.
I know why the caged bird sings
to drown out the sound of silent despair
for the beautiful resonating sound it brings
remembering blue skies and fresh spring air
...
It's a cold balmy night
A chill wind whips across an empty yard
Devoid of life, twinkling in the twilight
...
shadows whisper and echo tears
amid the laughter hides the fear
in the dying of the light the vision clears
but the truth stays hidden behind smoke and mirrors
...
we sat on the yard trying to look hard
like a collection of brutish retards
when out of nowhere the siren did blare
somebody went into intensive care
...
