I Don't Know

I don't know

Its been too long since I ever have

Past dictating my decisions now

Causing me to hesitate with the slightest of things

I don't know

Acquaintances would be on me left and right

Attacking almost everything they see

Going after everything that makes me feel good

I don't know

I feel like now I can't act like myself

Really I haven't acted like myself in so long

I'd be surprised to see who I really am

I don't know

I really think that its time to move on

Go out in the world and meet new people

Detach myself from everything I'm attached to now

I don't know

It sounds easy to do it

But is it really easy making friends?

I don't want to be left alone with myself

I really don't know

I think its time to find something new

But it's so hard to let go of the past and move forward

And I'm afraid people won't come with me along the way

I'm stuck in my head, in this pit of my thoughts

Guys I'm telling you, I really don't know what I want to do today.

This peice is lovely. it speaks of your inner emotions! It would be nice if you added a little rhyming but even then its a really good write. The repetition of phrases draws interest of the readers! good job! :)

I like how you are expressing yourself, I too have felt like this and probably do right now. I'm not entirely excellent at critiquing but I liked the poem itself. Keep going, and I look forward to reading more poems that are made by you.

[Shari Robinson]

This is good, although I agree with the previous reviewer - it would work even better if it was broken down into several different stanzas. I do like the way you're conveying your feelings however.

I like the feeling of uncertainty it creates and at the same time the need to break free from everything that pulls you down. I do think this poem would have a better formatting if you would break it down into several stanzas. It will be easier also for the reader to know where one part is separated from the other part.
