If I could...

started by aa 3 mnths ago

If I could pass the night tonight
Tomorrow will be a better day
If I could keep my words within me
I'll have no more to say

If I could sing along with the sparrows
I would love to join their song
But if I could close my ears to the music
Tomorrow I'd be more strong

If I could fly with the birds in the sunset
I would open my wings and fly
But tonight's not the night to do it
Tomorrow may be a clearer sky

Its amazing how the sunrise follows sunset
Chasing the darkness away
If I could pass this time of darkness
Tomorrow is another day !

Aa, honest critique here -

The first verse is your whole poem.The rest are cliches. I don't feel anything from the subsequent verses.

This poem was written by a management consultant !! The first stanza is the Executive summary. The rest are details :)

Dudette
He had more to say after the first stanza. In other words he was not done. In fact his last stanza accurately and poignantly depicts his angst and his hope for a new day.

ok, I feel generous so I'll let him keep the last verse, but the middle two about sparrows and wings have to go.

I think this is how it goes. Aa, bhool chook leni deni.

1: Can't stay here any more. Must find a way out. Must keep quiet or else I will make it worse

2: There is some attraction in staying back. But must not. since this is not my destination. I must stay strong. Else I might loose out on a better tomorrow.

3: I could leave tonight, but will be better to fly out tomorrow. Maybe I am not strong enough. Maybe I don't know the right path. Life is too dark for me to see clearly.

4: Staying back is a torture, now that I know this is not my destination. But if I could endure just this moment of darkness, tomorrow will be better.
