»Poet 1 Posted April 17, 2008 A search for something new Something to validate this life, this struggle Running through life, one day at a time Run boy run, like there's something for you tomorrow A whispered promise, driven only by faith Faith in something after all of this In some universal being, a higher power As expansive and breath taking as a skyscraper, a tower One that can be broken down with but a touch Just another promise mixed into such a short life Another belief shot down by reasoning The only thing to remain constant The constant failure So keep running boy, run towards tomorrow Filled with lies Rough draft.

D'Haiti 4 Posted April 17, 2008 it's a really abstract flow, to me at least, so i'm not gonna touch that but i have 2 issues with it. 1) constant failure over the constant failure 2) i don't get why you made the skyscraper line so long, nor do i like that it's so long, and then proceed to rhyme. besides that looks fine.

»Pharaoh Atem 15769 Posted April 17, 2008 My dear Haitian made good points. I feel that the last line throws it off a tiny bit for me as is, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
