I decided I'd try and post some of my poems on here, since I liked the first line poem thread so much. I would really like some advice on how to improve. Thanks! :)

War
Grayness clouds the eyes,
of a man fading from life,
Such sorrow and broken hope,
Such horror and strife.
His arm falls limply to his side,
His sword falls from his hand,
This is what war does to us
Death of the memories of man

Regrets and Sorrow
Drowning in your tears,
That fall sparkling from your eyes,
The sorrow fills the empty room,
And swells towards the skies,
I find myself trying to swim,
But your regrets bog me down,
I'm falling through your broken dreams,
I'm not afraid to drown.

Sounds
A repetitive noise,
A buzzing beep,
A loudly clanging
herd of sheep,
A bashing, banging
waterfall,
A bouncing, crashing,
falling ball,
A slurping, groaning
choir of hounds,
A howling growling
noise resounds.

A Life Unseen
I'd like to live a life unseen,
Melting into night,
I'd like to stay in a dream,
Hiding from the light.
Quiet, living in the cracks
of a land unknown,
I'd like to follow Earheart's tracks
And disappear all alone.

"A Life Unseen" is really good!
Just a couple of things...
I'd like to stay within a dream,
and
And disappear () alone.
I think it would make it flow easier. But still, really really good poem.

I'll try to submit a poem every day. Though that'll probably be pretty darn difficult...

This poem was magnificent TNT! Truly amazing.
I do agree with jeol in terms of making it flow better, plus the within just... needs to be there, makes more sense.
The poem has a nice meaning behind it as well.
In "War" the last line could be changed to make it sound better, but it too is remarkable. Oh one tiny mistake capitalize the o in Of ;P
