Gone

Post by faithmairee » July 5th, 2005, 6:29 pm

prove me right
or prove me wrong
it will not matter
once i'm gone

prove me weak
or prove me strong
don't wait to love me
'till i'm gone
There must be a poem in here somewhere.

I think the meter in this piece lends it both a good rhythm and a natural flow. I like your use of few words to express larger thoughts--simple and open-ended.

One editorial comment on the last line:
I'm all about poetic lisence, so disregard this at will. :)
In the rules world, I believe

until=till='til

Technically the apostrophe before a double-l "till" (e.g. " 'till i'm gone ") is unneccesary. But that's just rules.

LMAO poetic license means rules are meant to be broken and DARC is dedicated to breaking every rule in the book as long the message is unadulterated. "C"

Love Ya Joel but leave the rule book at home, J/K
