Grade my poem please?

Question

I am the author of my own life

Unfortunately I write in pen

I pray every mistake Ive made

Will not be made again

We all have regrets

Whether we admit it or not

Believe what you want

But its all in your thoughts

We all love

We all hate

You don't have to agree

But its nothing to debate

We are practically the same

No matter the color

No matter the race

We all need each other

So write your words carefully

And make sure you think

Because we cant erase

What is written with ink

Answer 1

It is very good, it started very strong...Beautiful!

Answer 2

I love the poem and the sentiments and the very unique pen metaphor; however, I'd like to share with you what a very wise poet told me:

"Rhyming is a deceptive little vixen of a literary device. She is at once everywhere, in the distance gazing at you seductively and waggling her hips. But once you get closeyou realize that she is horribly misshapen and quite unattractive. Or so the story normally goes. Overused and seldom natural in feel, rhyming poetry is what most poets normally think of when they think of poetry. Sadly, it is extremely difficult to pull off well and still maintain continuity and a natural, balanced feel to your work."

May I suggest writing a non-rhyming free verse version and compare the two. Awesome job. Write on!

Answer 3

I love this soooo much.

Its so strongly written.

Beautiful.

Keep writing.

You're Blessed.
