Here is a short poem i wrote for an english essay

Everyday

Everyday I live at night
Everyday I dream of light

Everyday I live alone
Everyday I feel unknown

Everyday I live in fear
Everyday I shed a tear

Everyday I live in hate
Everyday I dream of fate

Everyday I live in hope
Everyday I try to cope

Everyday…
I wish I was never born


please tell me what you think?

p.s the first poem i ever composed not including the set theme ones you get as class work

I liked your poem, though I found it very sad. I really hope this isn't an expression on how you feel everyday..

It is a nice poem but it is so sad...I just don't like that there is Everyday in every line. But this is only my personal opinion because don't like so much repeating in poems. You can try to write more positive poem too Very Happy

I think it's really good. The word 'everyday' starting off every line was fine with me. The only thing I didn't really like about it was the very last line. I just didn't feel that it fit with the rest of the poem.

Dude... t's really good for your first poem ever composed... but it's soundin' a bit like you're trapped in the darkness and you're hoping for fate to pull you into the light.

I used to write things like that... and it's not healthy for you. (Just sayin'.) Your rhyming is pretty good though.

A tip (from the unpro): Instead of going in this rythm:

A
A

B
B

C
C

D
D

Try going like this:

A
B

A
B

C
D

C
D

---

EX using your poem:

Everyday I live at night
Everyday I live alone

Everyday I dream of light
Everyday I feel unknown

Everyday I live in fear
Everyday I live in hate

Everyday I shed a tear
Everyday I dream of fate

---

Also, don't be afraid to try not rhyming. Poetry is usually a lot better when it rhymes, but don't sacrifice the poem to make it rhyme. Like, don't rhym if it doesn't make sense. Not that you did that; it's just something people do a lot that really kills their poem.

Dude, that's on the verge on bein' racist (since, if it was a joke, it wasn't funny). I wrote poems like that when I started out... it's just the simplest way to write poems (rhymnA, rhymnA, rhymnB, rhymnB, etc).

If you're talkin' about the content, then the same goes with that. I wrote lyrics like those when I began (though I was in a bit of a dump when I started writing poetry... but a lot of people are). Poetry's a good way to let out emotions, that's why a lot of depressed people write poetry... but also, a lot of people write happy poetry when they begin writing. Just saying, it's not just chinamen who write like that.
