Alone Again

Jeff

Alone again I hear the voice

That screams inside my head

Telling me the brutal truth

That its better if I'm dead

 

For many years I've tried to fight

While hoping for my Death

I pray that peace will find me, when

I draw my final breath

 

My Death is all I have to give

Now that all my dreams have fled

So I'll give into these voices

That scream inside my head

    Jeff,

    I'm in love with your writing style. The rhyme and the tone. I can relate to how I write my pieces. Great work, this one really intrigued me. It's short, but very powerful

            As always JEFF ~ great structure 3 neat quatrains and a consistent xaxa ~ xbxb ~ xcxc rhyming pattern. However ! Perfect structure BUT tragic subject ! STANZA 1. Beter Dead ! S 2. Peace ~ but only with your final breath ! S 3. DEATH ~ Voices Rule KO. Thanks for scaring ! BRIAN

                  That old saying that we have to hit rock bottom before we see the light is unfortunately true, and your very powerful poem conveys that feeling. Actually it is more like getting hammered over the head.
