Okay, this is the first poem I've actually ever written, so please don't laugh too hard. I'd just like to post it so I can get some constructive concrit and eventually get better. Please let me know what you think and maybe give me a few helpful tips. Thanks.

Why?
By cyberwitch-2006

Why must you leave me so sudden? So soon?
We've only just met and you're going already,
Why not stay until the rise of the moon?
Now that you're going... Who will keep me steady?

Must I live like this forever?
Must I live so alone?
Must I live with you for much longer?
Why?

I ask although I know the answer,
I cry although I know it won't help.
I scream and yell until my throat is too hoarse to speak any longer,
Yet nobody comes and I'm still by myself.

The single red rose that lies at my feet,
seems to whither at the sense of my feeble defeat.
If I must live like this because I am a monster,
Then why must I live at all?

Must I live like this forever?
Why?
Must I live alone 'til I die?
Why?
Must I live forever without the man that I love?
Yes.
Why?

Just because I am me.
Because I am me.

(P.S. I know my rhyming is totally crap. It's definately not my strong point). And don't please keep in mind, this poem was just a bunch of my midnight ramblings. I have lots of those... xp

Tho my heart is torn to his small bits
I live on
My hallow husk of a heart is lifless
atfer the love you gave is gone
The tears my bleeding heart are in vain
I cannot live without that light of your love
yet I must.
I miss the warm of your body
I miss the sweetness of your lips

but I live on, But it is barly living without you.

(Sorry I always like to write atfer a good poem)

Your poem is very good, cyber-witch, especially just for "midnight ramblings." I can't tell whether I absolutely hate the "why" parts at the end, or absolutely love them. It's one of those wierd things. It tears you on whether to like it or not, hmm, kind of like love. . . ahem, very good, very good poem indeed.

^^ i wrote a poem with the same title a while back, thought would be nice to share with you ^^
yours has strong emotions, very good. at first i had reservations about some of the phrases which were abit cliche and reminiscent of love peoms, but for midnight ramblings i think they convey the emotions out fully ^^
enjoy~

Why?
By Sukunami Taka

A small voice,
He looked up at me,
And asked,
Papa, why?
I smiled, it's okay,

Beneath white lights,
He seem so small,
His eyes opened,
And asked,
Papa, why?
I shook my head, it's okay,
Gentle mummurs,

A warm caress,
In my thoughts,
He asked,
Papa, why?
I sighed and hoped, it's okay,

Beneath dim lights,
He held my hand,
So small in mine,
And asked,
Papa, why?
Refusing to let go, it's okay,

Fainter and fainter,
He stared at me,
And asked,
Papa, why?
I have no answer, it's okay,
The sound beeped still,

His eyes closed,
A voice whispered,
Papa, why does it hurt?
I have no answer,
For my sweet child,
I ask myself,
Yes papa, why?

This is a very impactful piece. It's very good indeed. Before reading to the very end, I imagined a child sitting with their father beneath stars, peaceful, serene. But, at the end, I was hit hard with the painfl truth. Very good. But, don't try to cheat the new rule by posting your own pieces in other peoples threads.

Yes it is nice...

Maybe I'll write some more poems at midnight xDD It seems to bring out the best in me... Most of my work is midnight stuff... -blinks- I guess I'm nocturnal...

I loooooooooooooved this one. It was really deep. I liked it because it concerned not only one person's feelings, but his interaction with his son. It was interesting.

As for the first one, that one was well written, though the formality almost turned me off of it at first. I really really liked the ending because we learn the reeason for all the heartbreak. heart Woohoo!
