Full Version: Watch Over Me
BrainMeta.com Forum > Literature & Art > Poetry > Poetry Critique
Katie
Your mangled body
Your tattered clothes
My sacred temple
To their dispose
Why did you leave
Before I said good bye
I found your bloody body
After you had died
Your blood on my hands
Your voice is in my mind
Your lifeless body
Was left for me to find
I picked up your head
And laid it upon my lap
Tears streaming down my face
As I begged for you to come back
I wipe away
My tears from your cheek
"I Love You," I whispered
And I expected you to speak
Find your way home
Now that you are free
Promise me
You'll watch over me!
Hey Hey
This was very good. Others will disagree, I'm sure, but I think the last two lines should have differents words to end them, in rhyme rather than duplication. Not necessarily this, but something like:

Promise to be
A guardian over me

Feel free to ignore.

I look forward to seeing more of your work.

I like the end just the way it is, but I think the line "To their dispose" is confusing. But then, clarity is a feature of prose, I suppose.

Katie, I really do love this poem.

I think I would advise you to just leave it as it is.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us! This is a very powerful poem.
