Oceans in my eyes...

A sad poem full of negative energy...

What I expected,
and what I've got.
Just some shattered dreams,
and a hell to rot...

 

Looking at the past,
the path I've walked.
The decisions that I made,
and hell yeah, am shocked...

 

I can't mend,
the damage I've done.
I took my chances,
And I could have won...

 

It's not that I didn't try,
It's not that I didn't cry.
The only fault was,
the happiness that I couldn't buy...

 

Now look at me,
What else've i got?
Just some mixed thoughts,
I'll take them to the grave and rot!

 

There's not much left,
No more place for lies.
Don't look at me people,
I'm holding oceans in my eyes...

I can feel so much disappointment and sadness in this piece, very well put together. I would say to this person in the poem to chin up, cheer up, the world is yours too take, never regret because you are still alive, and if you are alive you can still change your situation

[Sanjh]

Thanks for the review and the advice...:)

[Lyndy]

[Misha]

Its a pure representation of sadness, depression and the feeling of being let down...all that which no one really sees but if possible i would really like to suggest this person to hang in there as there`s nothing permanent in this world.

[Sanjh]

Thank you...:)

[Onyia-Ali, Kingsley Chu..]

[Sanjh]

Once more thank you so much Onyia...:)

[Sindu]

The regret and anger can be deeply felt in this piece.. Nicely penned Sanjh! From the past, decisions, mistakes and all. A sad but well written piece.. But everything does change or happen for better, right?

[Sanjh]

Absolutely Sindu, the bad time passes out and the sun of happiness rises again...
thank you so much...:)

[Sindu]

welcome :)

[Ms. Nobody]

Yup, definitely both pain and sadness can be felt from this piece. That was well done. :)

I can't say that things will definitely better. The best I can tell you is for you to expect the worst but hope for the best? or idk. I don't really believe that either. Anyway, keep it up! The good work, i mean... :)

[Sanjh]

Thank you so much, I thing I know what you are trying to say...:)

[Eleanor]

This is packed with so much sadness. I understood perfectly everything you were trying to say. You connected with the readers. Its sad but so strong and powerful. Another great piece by you :)

[Sanjh]

Thank you once again for the nice words Isha...:)

[Khyati]

OMG! Everyone overcomes it.. so will you...
I can actually feel what you are trying to say.. Like, I got goosebumps , no kidding!
my god! Send me more write-ups please!!

[Sanjh]

Past is past,
no one can run.
We can just accept it
and move on,
Maybe that's what I've done...

Not sure...:p
Thanks...:)
