[i]dieing





dieing to get there
dieing to leave
dieing to have that
dieing to see her
dieing to see him
I d die for you
just thought id die
id just die if it happed to me
dieing is what we all do
a little each day sometimes quick
sometimes slow
most of the time
we don't know when were
going to go
what do you do
when somebody tells
you your going to die
one year two year
maybe ten years to go
no where to run no where to hide
do you fight do you give up
do you cry
do you scream out why
do you live for the moment
do you ignore it could you if you tried
ten times a day repeated in your head
unbidden it comes soon you will be dead
make the best of it
try and do all that you can
surround your self with friends
you want to be with your true love
in the end
desperately you try to fined
some peace of mind
some happiness to hide the fear
sometime its hard
to look in there eyes
and lie when asked what did the Dr say
iam ok
spare them the truth
because all that you do all that you say
is tainted by what lives in your head
time laughs at you from the grave
no matter what you say
no matter what you tell them
you live with that fear
every single day
dieing to get there
dieing to leave
dieing to have that
dieing to see her
dieing to see him
I d die for you
just thought id die
just dieing
to live

But seriously. Spell "dying" right, if you're going to write a poem about it. Also; ever heard of the "Shift" key? How about the apostrophe?

Honestly, I don't like the poem. And I don't think I'd like it even if it were grammatically correct. No offense, but half of the time it doesn't rhyme(if you want to write a poem without rhyming, that's fine, but be consistent about it!) there aren't even stanzas, and there is no syllabic pattern whatsoever.
Sorry man. But really.

g-RRRRRRF.

Gah!

Before I can read this I must say: It is dYing. i can't tell you how annoying that was >~<

I will match you poem with this:

I die inside.
Because this poem...
this poem does not work.
It has no rhyme.
It has no purpose.
The crow sings at night,
as the poem goes without a reason.
A reason.
A scheme.
A purpose...
It didn't work.
The poem fell,
I couldn't hold it,
It was just so light.
The lack of substance,
has destroyed it.

Then STOP writing bad poems, BE with your family, and STOP trying to jerk me with a pity card that isn't WORKING.

In short: You don't have cancer, if you did you would be resting, taking chemo, and being with your family instead of being depressed on the internet.

If you are just being depressed on the internet, you are obviously a jerk.

You know, thoad... This was posted a while ago. And somehow, I don't think the OP will be back to reply.

There must be something wrong with me, but I laughed my a** off at that. I don't know why. xD

Now, the poem, was not great. Or even good. Or even okay. It was bad, and the terrible grammar didn't help.

Of course, as Gantic pointed out, he probably won't be back due to a minor case of the move-ons or a nasty case of death. Both viable reasons.

So when's this thread lockdown going to occur?
In any case, I'm not going to repeat was everyone said, the title is what dissuaded me from comming here in the first place, and it was a good thing; that poem is...Let's go for Okay shall we...
And now Gantic is sounding like doctor House...Waitaminute...Gantic = Hugh Laurie?
That'd be a plausible hypothesis...hmmmm...

If Gantic was Hugh Laurie, ... OMG.
Anyways, Grammar wasn't the best, but I have seen worse. I for one LIKED the poem. Poems don't have to have a set rhyme scheme :/ I thought it could of been alot better, but it was still decent.
