Hullo. I'm nervous. How're you?

[Meredith]

Here's my poetry thread, eh? It's been up a while, so I hope it's enjoyable, though there's not yet much here. I'd like some criticism, so don't be afraid to post feedback - I'd be glad you did.

Life's always hard, you take a chance,


Seclusion or a deathly dance,


Of truths and lies, of rise and falls


Of reasons to push through those walls


But I am still alive.


Life's never fun, you're on your own


Through sorrow and through times alone


When those you love are in deep pain


And hatred flows like springtime's rain


But somehow, you're alive.


Life's always near, who'ere you are


It never clears the wall so far


It hardly seems so far away,


Until you need someone to say


That somehow, you're alive.

Time


-----


Time has caught me, I see that today


None left to ponder for some other way


Drained of will, my body will lay


And heaven or hell, I quietly pray.


Heaven or hell, be as it may


Forever there I will silently stay.

Limerick Inspired by "And Then There Were None."


-----


There once was an old man in Devon,


who knew that he shant go to heaven,


And so briskly he wrote,


nine others a note,


and soon of those nine there were seven.
