The City's Eyes (Poem) - June 19th 2012, 02:23 PM
The city's eyes are blurred tonight
Twixt rain and tears trapped in my sight.
I know not why the city cries
And shares with me her frigid sighs.
Perhaps like me she squalls in pain,
In search of what she can't explain,
And finds a refuge in her tears
Held back in pain for all the years
When every fight, and every crime,
Built up inside her every time.

I like how you compared yourself to the city, that was good. It was short but got the point across, good work! continue writing


When I'm sad I think, "I got a jar of dirt, I got a jar of dirt!"

You can't change fate, but you can change your attitude towards it.

like Ash said, i liked the comparison. i also like the personification of the city, which again ties to yourself. and your word choice. very nice

Wow, this one is really great! I agree with what everyone is saying fully.

Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
