The rebirth of spring
February 19, 2014
I hate the thought of another day coming along
The winter is as cold as my heart
But
I wonder if I even have a heart
Once I sold my soul for love
I am a dead flower that withered in the winter snow
I wish for a person in my life as new as spring
Someone as warm as the sun
Who can melt down the snow
And
Rain down on my roots
Without drowning me in disappear

I really liked this! I like how at first you compared yourself to a withered flower, and then to a tree, which is strong and hardy! Please keep writing! CX
I love the lines "I wonder if I even have a heart- once i sold my soul for love" Very deep, and it speaks to me personally. The only thing I would change about this poem, though, would be to add commas and periods where needed. If you go to the trouble of setting it up in poetry fashion, why not just add in little grammatical changes? (It's just my personal opinion- If you would rather have your poertry without periods and commas that's totally up to you.)
Lovely poem all around. Good Work. P.S. could you comment on some of my newer work? I'd really appreciate feedback. Thank you!
