    My Face

    Close down one of my other poems. It doesn't matter. God, I hate all of your fuckin' rules.

    My Face
    When I cry, I lose my face
    And a new face is carved:
    I sit at the corner of my bed
    Then the despair deep within me-
    becomes stronger and stronger
    Finally,
    Tears of burning acid scar my cheeks
    They stroll down to my chest
    Then my chest is scorched into a black flesh.
    I can't see it, but hell knows I can feel it.
    The dissonance in my screeching cries
    makes my ears tremble with numbing pain.
    I see crimson blood hit my white shirt
    Vibrant red lines through my heart
    Which causes my sadness to explode into melancholy
    Rage and sorrow become fused as one
    And my soul tears at itself:
    Clawing, ripping, and destroying me.
    Everything becomes a blur
    Thoughts string together into one long trance
    I fall to the unforgiving ground,
    and I hemorrhage all over the floor.
    I force my feeble arms to push my body up
    Then I look down my cherry red nose and
    I stare at myself in the trickling puddle,
    The waves in the blood become hypnotic
    I witness the devil with a bewildered gaze
    Until the terror becomes evident
    And then I begin to scream until I eventually,
    run out of breath,
    suffocate,
    pass out,
    and choke to death,
    on my face..

    I really like this part, you paint a mangled picture, but its still a great painting none the less.

    And my soul tears at itself:
    Clawing, ripping, and destroying me.
    Everything becomes a blur
    Thoughts string together into one long trance
    I fall to the unforgiving ground,
    and I hemorrhage all over the floor.

    I like this part also, no disrespect, but I picture a couple scence from the Hellraiser movies with this part. Considering your other posts recently, I just hope everything turns out alright.
    Peace

    this was a very expressive peice. i can understand what you are trying to say about the difficulty of expressing emotion through tears. Is there a reason that your "tears" go through metamorphosis or did you just do that to sound cool? all in all a good poem I think this shows a better grasp of emotion than most on this site. you've inspired me, I think I'm going to key style a cry poem now.

    hmm...good...interesting...nice wordplay, great diction, excellent syntax, great job keeping the tone....simple, but good structure....potent poetry at it's finest...

    Technical:
    9.8/10

    beautiful imargery. nice concept, well executed, the energy was maintained with excellent word choice....the piece was bolstered by it's feigned abstract style...almost allegorical....i liked it much respect

    Content:
    9.8/10

    Overall:
    9.8/10

    Thanks to everyone.

    If it wasn't so late, then I'd give feedback to everyone of yall's pieces.

    I had a feeling this would be nominated for legends but it doesn't belong in legends. Thank you for the nomination though.

    I'll make sure to give good feedback to everyone's pieces tomorrow.

    EDIT:The tears stand for an extreme pain felt deep inside.

    Everyone feels sad at times but people rarely feel depressed to the point where you feel as if the warmth from your tears are hot as flames that burn you.

    The poem for anyone who has ever been sad or angry to a breaking point where they cry. I'm a man, and it's hard for men to talk about crying, but when I mention it in this poem, I want to show the great pain that it has on a me.

    lol, no, I'm sorry you misunderstood what I wrote.

    What I meant was, thanks for the nomination, but it doesn't belong it legends. Which it didn't do. I didn't make it in legends. I'm just stating that I agree with the decision of Bounce.

    If Bounce says it's not good enough then I'm willing to believe him because he actually gives an explination instead of just "no legends"(as posted by C-section).

    I think this piece has been hyped up quite a bit and im sorry to say i dont think all of it was deserved. This piece had very good imagery and i enjoyed how twisted it was, you got the deep pain across very well but it just didnt strike me as deeply as some of my fellow poets, a good drop but far from legendary IMO
