Titles erupt from my skull.
I heard of Stanzas and lines.
I heard there are two types of this
(English and Italian).
However,which is which remains
My daily question.
I tried from an early age,
Yet I'm still confused.
Will I ever get it right?
Who'd tell me if I do?
I'm on my own in this,
There is no direction or
Whatsoever.
The ambition multiplies daily,
Yet the confusion preaches
The opposite to me.
Yes, I'd love to be assisted.
However, who's willing to assist?
Yes, I'm stranded,
Stranded on a vast dessert.
Yelling my heart out for redemption.

- Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this poem reflecting on the path I'm going through. The undying love I got for poetry yet I got nothing to show for it. All I need/needed is to be told what do I have to do to be a great writer one day.

read, read, read
then read some more
or get a short cut, by attending a poetry course
which will teach you
to read, read, read...
before writing
first, learn to read
not just count-out your abc's
the real meaning's, hidden
between the ink
when you can begin
to differentiate, between
alphabet, grouped for effect
or syllables counted-out, for rhythmic fluidity
and, the real poetry: where sincerity reigns supreme!
then, you'll have found an avenue
to realising, exactly why
you want to write, until then
everything else, we scribble
are just elaborated diary entries
in the guise, of wannabe poetry...
good luck, dear Poet!
enjoy the ride, its fleeting but worth every sacrifice!
(in my humble opinion)
I get that ❤️🔥 I'll definitely improve and I'm so willing to read till I get it right ❤️🔥 thanks a lot for you opinion, I appreciate it a lot...it means a lot to me❤️🔥 thank you...
So out of 10,how do you rate this poem🤔?
who am I to rate any poem?! lol
Trust in yourself, above all else!
rate it yourself, honestly
taking into account where you are in your poetic journey;
then try to score better, next time
and on....
Yes - read and read again and ask what makes sense to you - that way you will establish your own voice.
