You Think

• Artist: FireflameKitty
• Description: Here something that isnt "emo". Its not very good because I just wrote it off the top of my head. Poems are just that poems. Just because you write something doesnt mean its how you feel. Before you label someone get to know them. Anyways please dont flat out insult or attack me. Its just rude.

You think that just because,
I write a poem thats sad,
I have no faith, no will to live.
Not enough to keep me through.

Its people that are like you,
That make me write such things.
You think you know a person,
From just a few short words.

I'm a happy, cheerful person,
If you get to know me.
If you read my poetry,
You'll think that I'm quite sad.

But you dont know the real me.
The me I keep from you.
If you want to say those stinging words,
Learn the facts, dont just guess.

Personally I thought it was weak. You're poem is contradictory. First you imply that a sad poem does not really depict how you feel but then say you have a reason to feel that way. Second you write that people only judge one side of you yet you keep the other side of hidden. I think there is a lot of room for improvement. Maybe your poem lacks depth because it’s not what you feel. You could try writing from your heart and see how it goes. I wish you the best on your literary journey.

I dont think my life sucks. I just dont write happy to often. I watch other people and write what comes to mind. If I try to write happy it fails... like epic fails...

And when you do, and you pull it off, not only mine, but everyone who's not blowing smoke out their a** in the literary world will respect you the more for it. Branch out! Poetry encompasses all subjects, not just "omg my life sucks."

I know this poem is average. It was written in about a minute. I didnt put much effort in it. It was actually my other poem that I was offended by. Just because I write an emo poem doesnt mean I'm emo. Its much easier to write about sad things then happy ones.

Of course poems should be judged at some point. That makes them better when people tell you what works and what doesn't. And of course I'm going to judge someone I've never met through the poetry/posts they put up. How else would I judge them?

Your poem is really average.

Well, most of the thing I'm good at is the sad poem only...Not happy one..."
