The Room
 
I crawl back to my room,
the only friend I have,
the walls surround me,
with understanding eyes,

I feel replenished in your presence,
the only real part of my day,
spend the rest of the day,
making things out of sticks,
that are only bound to break,

why don't other people have your eyes,
why don't other walls have your eyes,
it's just not the same without you,
I try to remember what it was like in your presence,
I'm thinking too much,

it's so dark, I can't find my way,
stumbling and clutching for something,
to hold me up,
I crawl back into my room,
just happy to still be alive

Cheesy and completely over the top, the only friend I have? cmon.

You rhymed day with day, congrats.

Once again, way cheesy.

The whole idea is weak and just comes off as a teenage whining about how cruel the world is. You can be honest about something like that without being cliche. There is no flow or rhyme scheme to this entire thing, its basically a collection of fragmented sentences. I don't like it.

well, since this isn't the rap thread, I didn't feel like I had to rhyme any of it, I guess you might be disappointed reading it after you put down your Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein books.

When you end two lines with the same word, it sounds lame, unless you're repeating the same line, but, even then it sounds weak. Also, you offer nothing but cliches here. After having read this, Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein are looking pretty good right now.

I have yet to read a single constructive post by you, and you basically said the exact same thing as Crowquill.
