Ok os this is my first poem so anything is excepted
We spend our lives watching time fly by
not noticing where we are steering ourselves
we spend our days like we have nothing to live for
keeping the bad memories, throwing the rest out the door
what do you expect?
if we always live with regret
but dont let it catch you falling
keeping moving forward and quit the stalling
What can i say?
loosing a little dignity everyday
i make my choices and hope for the best
with life as the host and me as it's guest
I take the chances life throws at me
so maybe life will let me be
stand on your feet and quit crawling
keep moving, dont let it catch you falling
tring not to notic the pain people afflict
and everything else we restrict
what do we do if there's nothing left
should we go back or move forward
What do you expect?
if we always live life with regret
stand on your own feet and quit crawling
keep moving, dont let it catch you falling
how was it....and slade be free to tell me how much it sucks..cause i know it does..it is my first poem.

Look.... let me level with you, you're 16 years old and I think it would highly benefit you to hear this. Try to think outside the box. When you go to write a song or poem, make the topic somthing other than "girls" or self-loathing. Take a subject that you're interested in such as history, math etc. and attempt to form a song around it. For instance: If you look back a few pages, I wrote a song called "The Comstock" (We are rivers) which was inspired by my liking of geography and bodies of water/Rivers. I make abstract connections between people and rivers, I also describe a man's life in the piece. My ultimate advise is simple.... try to do something different. Just try, even if it's not something that turns out successful, it will be much better than endless ramblings about cliche topics.

And another last bit of serious advise: don't type like that. People will instantly hate you. If you want to be taken seriously, just type normally.... trust me on this.

I like it. But then again, I've posted a lot of poems here and not one person has liked any of them, so I might not be the best person to take advise from haha
