A Slice Of Life
25 March, 2003
Author: Leah06
I have thought about it once
What it would be like
Who would care
What would happen.
I have always been to scared
Would it hurt
Would it work
Would I Regret trying.
I have never tried it
And I am glad.
Looking back
I don't think I would ever go that far
It is too extreme to take a life
Let alone yours.

| Red Dragon (210.14.4.51) -- Tuesday, April 1 2003, 12:34 pm Hey this happened to me before. A time when you are in situation torn like would you go try the water or not...its not being scared or sumthin but more of balancing the importance of things...like a new mobile phone or a palmtop? and yet after you chose one over the other....there is no regret....Nice.... |

| Martin Vann (65.57.62.203) -- Wednesday, April 2 2003, 09:32 pm Leah06, Would it hurt? Yes. Would you regret it? Yes, if its the taking of your life, you would look back and say, it wasn't worth it! However, I can see another point of view here..., Abortion, yes, you would regret it as the ghost of a child's heart beat, yet, due to you, beats no more, except within that place, that was once your own heart. Leah06, this is good work, it gave me some areas to walk around in. Yet, we all know your heart, and this is not you, perhaps you are reaching out? Learn what you can, but remember, you will never surpass your, true self. I don't mind poems that show a lacking in grammar or rhyme or whatever, as I seek only to hear the heart speak, I can correct the rest if, I care to, however, being a bit sloppy, I'll take what I feel, as the truth. Also, I can accept, honest, corrective, suggestions, and you seem to be getting a few. You are the author, so, do and write as you feel, its all up to you. Your work is good, but don't feel that you have to be perfect, improve sure, but do it within your comfort zone, and no one else's. Don't push your work where it is not ready to go. Again, I appreciate, suggestions, especially, when it comes from another, and I have been allowed to see some of their work. No offense intended here, towards anyone. Suggestions should be allowed to come from a variety of directions, don't you think? MartinV |

| RinRin (24.25.55.231) -- Tuesday, April 8 2003, 09:36 pm it's so strange...i've thought those thoughts before..."would it hurt" and "would i regret it"...such an easy decision to make...yet so hard too...you don't know what would happen if you were gone, and yet you want to get out of the cruel world so you won't hurt anymore...strange, strange...i still don't think i've figured it out yet! at least on my part..but wonderous job on this poem! it says a lot, and gives the reader much to think about. |
