You don't know

Life is a difficult place

a lot of times we don't know

what to do

So we search for something important

That one person who means the world

that one person who knows that the world is horrible

and it makes it a little better

because they're there

We throw those three words around

but there are the few

that when we say it

we mean it

Sometimes it might not go our way

life throws balls at us that sting our wounds

but we have to remember that at least we can hold onto

those little things

don't go around being a b***h just because it hurts

everyone is in pain

try being happy, try being kind

even if it backfires towards you

there are plenty of ways to go around this

stop judging others because of what they are

religious, sexuality, race

think about it

none of it matters after you die

so why should you care about it now

take the time to get to know someone before you judge them, and even then try to see through their shoes

try saying I love you sincerely sometimes

and maybe say thank you a little more

Lately the world of writing has sent me suprises Rivaxorous. I could equate that to your desire to communicate with that only person. The one that you seem ready to say "I love you". Then you confess to wanting to become a writer and then in my internal sequence followed by a desire to be nice about the wrting. Then you send my an invite and I came into the constraints of this world created by you. I would only be a fool if I was only to be nice to you. So in terms of forms and language and your relationship towards punctuation and grammar as a way of expression I'm sure you would agree that is very personal, vague, loose and convinient just to you. That's not a negative thing but leaves open the question: Is there a way that maybe you could use all that to your favour? To accentuate maybe what you are trying to communicate? Capitalizing at the beggining, use of commas, semi - colons, dashes (all of them) so on so forth as a way to help the writing? In terms of form it lends itself as a narrative poem so again may there be ways to help that? I think that there are...
Lastly in terms of theme, I felt the term B***h is out of place as the writing seems like an honest desire to uplift, to behold in the ight light, to embrace and if that was the case the more the lanaguage is use to elevate the more the theme receive help from the meaning that it is carried by he words.

Thankyou for yor invite.

"We throw those three words around

A well written poem. Bravo..............

[Laura Lynn]

everyone is in pain, good reminder, ok, I don't know you but I can say I love you or thanks, I don't know how I love strangers actually, but thanks at least! -llc

That simple communication is always the most ferocious, well done, good read.

It's important to be tough-skinned but that doesn't equate with negating and criticising everyone around us. This carries a nice and important message Rivaxorus.
On the poetry note though, you can do better :)
