How do you interrupt my poem? .. 1st one ever?

Question

i've just started creative writing need help and adivce

all criticism welcome! and possible titles.

just wanting to no how other interrupt this.

This is a short poem i wrote about 1 hour ago

People run to catch up with time,

but he is running hoping to find

a way back to past memories

searching across made up boundaries

his answers sting my cheek

it usually hurts when he speaks

for the man is in love with me

and it's causing me anarchy.

Answer 1

he broke up with u or u broke up with him and u still love him or he slill loves u but u wolnt do anything about it

Answer 2

something having to do with breaking up I guess?  It's really not bad for a beginner.  Good job :)

Answer 3

I think you meant to ask how do people *interpret* your poem.

I think it is promising.  If time is the one who is in love with you, you might want to capitalize it in order to define him as a character, not an object.  If not, you might want to change the first 'he' to 'the boy' or something that will make it stand out more.

Great first poem!

Answer 4

its ok i guess

Answer 5

wow that's good for just starting out.

i read it as: your missing the past or still living with the memory of something that happened in the past, and either the memory is sad and it's making you cry or u miss those times and that's what is making you cry, because you want them back.

Answer 6

this is a ggreaat first poem...

It seems to be that this man is in love with you and you used to love him back but he did something to hurt you. So whenever hes around you you get confused about  whether you like him or not. And since he hurt you back then whenever he speaks to you you just feel so emotional and it reminds you of way back when he broke your heart or whatever..

But remember: Not all poems make sense to everyone...since it makes sense to the writer then its unique for everyone else because they all have theyre different oppinions

Answer 7

I love the first 4 lines, but the last four I'm not sure what you mean. Or how they relate to the first four.

Answer 8

I like it, reminds of me home.

Answer 9

I think its...

Your trying to move forward but "he" holding you back because he cant let go of the past.

Answer 10

i think this poem is about a girl being confused if she likes this guy or not...b/c maybe they used to date or he used to like her and she gets all these emotional feelings around him and overall she is confused.....idk but this is a great poem and remember poems dont always have to make sense as long as it makes sense to da writer then ur good

Answer 11

For a first poem, this is great. You have potential and should keep writing. I believe you put your heart into this and it is the result of life experience. I see it as a one sided love, a broken heart, and a desire to move forward. Good luck. You should consider a free poetry posting site to gain more experience and useful critique. I recommend:

allpoetry.com

poetrypoem.com

Stay away from poetry.com this is a vanity site and there are no winners.

Answer 12

i agree with the first answerer. its alright

Answer 13

Just so you know, it's "interpret"

I am the worst person in the world for interpreting poetry lol. Good luck as a writer :3
