The Gap

I try to reach you

yet again you spurn

i watch as you turn

your back and through

the corner of my eye

i see the spark die

so because i am human

yes, only a woman

i slowly detach

Alas, you ask now to patch

what you spurned

but my back is turned

i refuse to be

You, just let me be

  1. I get the message but the structure of the poem is so all over the place.

  2. True… i agree with Myne… nice poem though

  3. Ya, Myne’s right….

  4. Guess this is just your style…To put down whatever you think, without caring much about any ‘rule’….
    This is the reason why people say anyone can write a poem…

    D message of the poem came through…Keep writing.

  5. captivating and direct! i love it.

  6. every body definitely has a style- i say well done and keep writing

  7. Nothing makes more sense than staying true to your beliefs and principles…why go back and eat your vomit?

    Once the heart has taken flight
    Its journeys through darkness
    Misery becomes its plight
    Visiting the pits of sadness

  8. Direct and unique. I do agree with Myne but I guess it’s your style. Nice message. Well done @shewhoisloved (na wah dis name o)

  9. I enjoyed the flow but it ended too quickly for me. 10/10 for hitting the nail on the head. Looking forward to reading more :)

  10. What more can I say? Keep writing
