well time for some (meta)criticism
a pathetic try on writing sentimental poetry
I think the rhythm of the first verse seems to me very awkward, how can I fix that? the fata morgana stuff sounds like (pause) wack..
I could begin it with an oh, alack or alas ?
(alas) how the fata morgana of you,
In every shape of the real world,
Haunting is not but the very essence
of (every breath,) knowing the sweetness of living
can every breath be omitted? ( I know it can but would it be proper, better worse?)
Distracting - no, give pause to duties at hand,
making (me?) so much better to forget (the)distress
of the lacking of thy presence in the now
or
of lacking thy presence in the now
leaving (me) ever wanting
should the 'me' and the 'the' be kept or left out or something else?
How it is so, thou cannot be erased
From the very air (I) breathe
like the carving of thy name on canvas so vast and blue
brushed by the ever blowing winds?
dunno what to do with this verse, what about the 'I'?
Shall you be my epitaph to my despair
and part with my companion of air?
then infinity has reached it's end
once again day one shall commence
this sounds a bit lame
sorry to put y'all through such pain
I just have no idea what to do with this thing
maybe I should just leave in the trash bin
you can call it crap if you want...
