Feel that cool breeze blowing A whisper from a past forgot Sometimes walking alone Thoughts run free and simplify And old friend of past A feel you never knew Just walks on in He seems kind and true Understands you Inside and out nothing but a vulnerability That is you So your door opens And he just walks on in A promise across a table Life so soon pure difference No longer inside looking out Your time becomes Outside looking in Thats ok for years ahead Not taking much in on what is changing LIfe is feel and what do you care Never had this before No more slow we is a superstar So high no despair No Holding back Look at them we know it all Who are you So much change didnt see the become So busy pushing forward Only on the run How many people get left behind Signed a contract i dont mind Look in their eyes so much hate In their minds so much mistake What have i become

I felt that you weren't getting your idea across quite clearly enough. (In some places it was also a little confusing what you were trying to say).
There were a few forced rhymes I thought; and this stanza I really didn't like: "Just walks in on/ he seems kind and true/understands you". It feels really forced to me.
Maybe you should try to write this poem in free verse - just free and not worrying about rhymes or line breaks or anything (tell yourself a short story with a few short sentences?) and then try to convert that into this poem. |
