Wonderful! @gritty sail has just progressed to level 2!
There is a lot of powerful motions running in your heart but I would still try and cut this poem down with as much as possible. Quite frankly I see the stuff for three maybe four love poems instead of one. I think you also agree that it’s too long
yeah been having a problem with that
how do I shorten the poem
poems
I have one which isn't that took long I think? could you take a look
Try to summarise five sentences with one.. basically imagine that your every last breath could produce one last sentence telling the world of who you were
Yeah sure buddy no problem
got it
thanks
Good man
thank you can I tag you in some of my other poems
Of course
Of course
thank you there is #1486760946754916402 which is very short and then #1486786532420485331 which isn't that long and #1486757545367310506 but it's pretty long so js leaving a warning
@zealous juniper
3rd stanza - put a comma after TRUE LOVE and before LIES
4th stanza, last 3 lines , feel there should be a piece of punctuation there. After MET YOU, to slow the poem down , as with romance poems , the flow is typically slower.
Last stanza - JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WARM - I'd change WARM to WARMTH.
Overall , a very confessional romance style poem and very well executed.
@ebon fable
polished and done how's it now and please leave a star thank you
Wonderful! @ebon fable has just progressed to level 3!
@ebon fable
what were you thinking while wirting though this?
honestly this isnt a horrible piece, its imagery is pretty good!
but it feels like your streaching it longer and longer repating the same things
I thought love was fake,
with a mask worn tight,
but you showed true love
lies in the heart,
and your heart
is most pure, full of light,
my heart never wanted
to leave or stray apart,
cause you aren't
someone to win,
you were earned,
you were careful
when it came to trusting
and letting people in,
but you chose me
and I can't be more grateful,
for I'm the girl
you chose to bring in.
yeah the same pattern
I get what you mean
look at these 2 stanzas.
I don't think I write help-
thats okay but you have to refine thoughs ideas
okay where are you going with this
cause me don understand
what do you think is wrong over here?
intially when you write a poem, it just comes through in a flow and you wirte whatever. but then you have to go back and see how the poem is, fix some lines, read it again and again, take some lines out
because its then when you make it turly good
yeah
go on
the stanza i selected, they dont feel like apart of the poem because theyre way to much overdiscribing a feeling. a feeling that every lover feels but in poems we try to make them look elegant and by that it means not to name them directly but use your imagies maybe of nature and compare, you can name it but then use the right words
let me show you a poem
yeah
I could try to write a shortened vers or a slightly different vers and if I do I'll tag you
look at this poem
its so short, but its so simple
i know someone who kisses the way a flower opens
try reading more
without reading you wont have an idea how to write.
and copy poets styles
if it's a book can I ask which book
and thank you
it will help
definitely
devotions by mary oliver
thanks a lot for the advice
thx
these books too?
there is one I'm proud of
it's a bit dark
but if you're open to it
sure tag me
@granite carbon
@clear pond
I think reading the last two, they're great but they're kinda of hard to follow through (because of the length maybe). The writing is sparse, like something a poet would write in one sitting and they'll do it freely.
I don't like the ride and my dear cancer are my favourites. When I became a man is too good, fully complete I feel. @ebon fable
Byee, I really liked reading your works.
yes that is how it happened, except I kept adding more and more later...
oof-
thank you a lot but there's one more and if you could leave feedback on it I'd appreciate it thanks you don't have to do it rn if you're busy and if you want you could leave it
thank you and I hope to one day read yours when you feel ready to post here
Wonderful! @ebon fable has just progressed to level 6!
tag me if you ever do
Thanks, I'll surely do!
great
Do you mean a wound for leverage?
yes
Actually by the two, I also meant that one.😅
ohh sorry my bad got it now
and definitely
cuz the leverage one I intended to make it complicates
somewhat
Yeah, also... I am kinda not really comfortable with the topic it surrounded (however soft it was), so didn't leave a review on it. It's a me thing, really.
oh sorry and that's okay we all have our limits and sorry if it made you uncomfortable I'll put a tw on it and i completely understand i hope you're better now
Haha, it's not a issue. You don't need to do that.
I should to be safe
