win is a win

win is a win

A Poem by berenongur
"

your closest one can become your worst enemy, an enemy with whom you experience everything and who is as close as your breath.

"
I didn't mean to love and lose
Now you are just a pair of shoes
in my home
Close the curtains and leave the burdens
Now you are in one of your versions
in my loam

Where were you when i was crying under a wreck
They all told me from my back that you were the one who broke my neck to death
Now i see you everywhere because you are sitting right there to see me
if i ever lose my breath

I'm regret everytime for the times i let you climb to my mind
I'm trying to feel fine but you keep bringing me the wine
I don't wanna feel the wind, anymore

Still waiting for your message
So i could send you all the passage i wrote
for last one year
now im thinking start to smoke
then maybe i should have to woke for my beer with my tear

Feeling bad enough to write again
thank god im not your wife, amen
I can't even stop my brain when the words are coming with a train
which is blue
i knew
that you were just a stupid lover
you used these words just to cover for the run, run too far

i meant the colors ive been talking but you were deaf
and you will never laugh in green neon bar again
you will never dance in new years eve with one of my songs and
if i'll ever have a son, i know how not to raise now
i guess win is a win

This is someone who is harping anger inside, for something that a lover did or said to him; it is also sad and frustrating, waiting to see what happens to the relationship.....perhaps it will retain or perhaps it is over...that is left for the reader to decide....nice work...keep writing!!!

The problems that I see are unrelated to how well you write, your language, or talent. Of more importance, they are fixable.

The real problem is one you share with the vast majority of hopeful writers. You left your school years believing at the skill you learned, called writing, is universal to all applications. But it’s not, and that belief lead you into the most common trap in writing: Trying to use those nonfiction skills when writing poetry and fiction.

They've been developing and refining the skills of poetry for centuries. They've also been finding ways to keep from screwing up a perfectly good poem. So, by digging into the techniques of poetry you'll find yourself standing on the backs of giants.

• The first problem is that because our school-day writing skills are intended to make us useful to employers, who need us to write reports, letters, and other nonfiction applications, we're taught only nonfiction writing. Its goal is informing the reader. So, using that approach, you, the narrator, talk to the reader about what matters to you.

But readers seek entertainment, which is an emotional goal. So the approach to writing poetry is emotion, not fact-based, which is a very different approach, and so, must be acquired in addition to our existing writing skills.

• You begin this piece with what appears to be a metrical poetry format. But, you're forcing the line to the needs of the rhyme, which we must never do. The rhyme should express that thought so perfectly that the fact of it rhyming seems almost incidental. It should be the tink of a finger cymbal, not the thud of a drum.

There is a lot to both metrical and non-metrical poetry that's not obvious, but which we must acquire because it makes the job easier, and the reading more fun.

I suggest that you first, go to Amazon, and read the excerpt from, Stephen Fry’s, The Ode Less Traveled. It’s a brilliant introduction to what makes metrical poetry what it is.

Next, for an excellent introduction to non-metrical poetry, try Mary Oliver’s, A Poetry Handbook. It's filled with unexpected gems of information.

So… I know you hopes for something more pleasing than this when you requested a comment. But, since we'll never address the problem that we don’t see as being a problem, I thought you might want to know.

This is beautiful. It would have been more better if some lines were painted on a canvass of romance

Gratitude with beautiful blessings your way, dear poetess...
This is so expressive! So many emotions put in beautiful words! Here's my advice: use a free online grammar checker whenever in doubt. But so far, your English is actually pretty good!
