A while ago, I told my friends to give me a subject to write a poem about. They gave me the word lament.

2 months later, that poem finally arrives. Psychology class was really boring today. XD

For what is lost, I mourn
Inside, I am torn
The heart inside me broken
So many words left unspoken
The chance to say them, long gone

To yearn for things since past
Leaves a hole quite vast
A crack in the earth
A gigantic girth
Breaking with each new dawn

Day and night are all the same
For everything this life became
Alone in a galaxy where nothing cares
Challenging the one that dares
Forever question on


The first line, second stanza is on purpose.

As I previously said, I love structured, and that is awesome... Actually I almost titled my novel God Of Laments (which is a synonym for Baldr in Norse Mythos), and that is one of my favorite words to use when writing... Very good.

Thank you.

Why didn't anyone point out that I had typed "galaxy" as "galazy"?

A gigantic girth


try revising that line it doesnt seem to flow with the rest of it. Otherwise I quite enjoyed it.


Actually reading it over im not sure what you could do with that part.

I love the word lament. The spelling, the sound, everything.

I'm probably entering tihs as my third and final poetry entry for that contest.

So, commence with the "tell waffles every little thing that could improve this poem"

Um, I'm a wordy syllable freak. It could maybe use a few more syllables here and there. The rhyming's good, and I love the concept though.
Breaking with each new dawn
That line's a little off.
