Attack of the heartThe curtain opens revealing an studio apartment. A man and a woman sit on opposite couches facing each other. They simply sit in silence for a minute looking around and pondering what they've just dealt with. Gracie: Wow, can you believe it? Brian: No, it happened so suddenly. Ya know, everyone in the family used to joke around and say that mom, the health nut, would be the one to have a heart attack. Who would have thought it would actually happen that way. Gracie: I don't know. I still cant believe it, shes not even 60 yet. When did the doctor say that he'd call us with the results? Brian: Not until tomorrow. GAttack of the heart


The Show Must Go onI Walk into the audition room, it wrangles on my nerves. What if I forget a line? Or completely miss that note? Quickly, I get into character and hope to finally see the curtain. “Cut.”The Show Must Go on
I hear that word and wonder if I'll make the cut. “We'll get back to you.” These words weigh even more on my nerves. Exit stage left. Curtain. Exit. Review what happened; line by line. Did they think I was enough of a character? My agent called days later “The director sent me a note”
...What was said in that note? For god sakes, tell me already! Did I make the cut? &nb


The Ignorance of LoveThey say that love is blinding this is wrong. Love makes you see. Love lets you see the person inside, Love lets you see inside yourself. Love blinds you to the outside world and shows us only what we need to know. Love shows us who you are, who you want to be and who you need.The Ignorance of Love
It is ignorance that makes you blind. Ignorance leads you to believe you're in love when you're really in lust. Ignorance makes you do stupid things, just to prove that you're in love. Ignorance shows you what you want to see and makes you believe it is love.

The UsedExperience. That's all we had nothing more, nothing else. We got what we wanted and you went your own way. Never realizing what I wanted. Never caring either. You Bastard. I don't forgive you for what you did. I resent that you kept intentions secret from me, despite my forwardness. You knewThe Used
exactly what you did but continued shooting for what you want and pulling the covers over my eyes. You Bastard. I'm not alone in this, I know. So here's to everyone who's had emotions crushed by pricks like you. To the ones who lost what they wante

PS: It's been a while since I've added anything to my stock account. I'll be taking a stock trip in the near future, mostly nature stuff, but hopefully I get a few surprises along the way!
I like what you've written here. They are about everyday things that everyone experiences, and it works.
First of all, the one about you and your mother. Really touches at home with me. My mother and I have a destructive relationship. I hate it, because I love her, but she really isn't that great of a person.
The graduation poem, I loved it, and I'm going to go
The one you wrote about thanking your friend. It's an awesome dedication. Not enough people in this world show how much they care and that's why there's so much hate. If everyone took five minutes every year to stop and thank those they hold close, this world would be such a better place.
As a whole, I liked your poetry, the thoughts expressed. It's minimalistic, but deep and authentic. One little bit of advice to consider for future poems is maybe some timing, or rhythm. Rhyming isn't always needed, but I think poetry is much more effective if it's timed, and symmetrical. (You don't have to take this criticism to heart, I'm far from an expert on poetry, just a suggestion)
Great work, and I'm going to DevWatch ya. I look forward to seeing more!
