    Close To The Edge

    I can't breathe, everyday cold shivering feeling's swim up my spine
    split personality, dealing with reality, trying to catch up for lost time
    no family, no feelings to share, IM scared, with out anyone to express love
    ten years of hard-core drugs, fighting thugs, my life these days suck
    i am a stupid fuck, life never took much, i should of tried harder on believing
    all my life under achieving, a looser kid whose family is gone, my hearts bleeding
    used up my teenaged years grieving, getting in fights, or catching bullets
    creating open wounds, while constantly using shrooms, i couldn't control it
    had a decent job, then got popped, for being a snot nosed little thief
    they never let me explain or speak, never given a chance, just told me to leave
    i couldn't believe, how cruel this ugly world can be, so i stuck to the streets
    supposed to be an orphan, i was told my Mom wanted an abortion, but decided to keep
    me as her only son, but what had she done, i was better off dead than alive
    but instead, IM a no good kid, who doesn't have shit, but a fucked up life

    -speaks to God-
    ''why has this happen to me, what makes you believe, this is what i deserve
    is there a reason, am i a demon, who was sent to suffer on this waste of earth?
    is this a curse, punishing my mother, or father for something evil they committed
    why me?, IM sorry for they're wrong doings, but i promise you i never did shit
    man i wish, i can turn back time, to become a better person, your true servant
    ill always love you, but i can't like you, like my parents who have me hurting.....''-----

    but it's to late now, i can't turn back, it's to late to get on the right track
    my minds whack, this shits jacked, insane in the brain and that's a fact
    i don't care, i smell death in the air, but IM not sure if IM suicidal
    IM not fine, but each time, i cut my self my face brings a silly smile
    like its worth my while, people hate my style, thinking IM no good
    but understand, IM now a man, born on the street's in a rotten hood

    I feel this is my test, fuck you, fuck life, fuck the rest
    fuck my community, fuck the people, I am the best
    but.....
    i cannot feel blessed, when I am constantly stressed
    never knowing when ill die, knowing I am close to the edge

    You seemed to put a lot of personal emotion into this. But it was very simplistic and stretched too much. But i don't think technical structure and all that was too important in your mind anyway.
    I'm too secure to have a signature.

    Oh.

    As I read the first couple of lines, it just didn't seem believable. Maybe since I know a bit about you, I don't know. I didn't like those first couple of lines. You had some good internal rhymes, it gave the piece more rhythm. Very nice job with that. Eh, you were supposed to be an orphan but your mom wanted an abortion? That doesn't make any sense...maybe I read it wrong...eh. The syntax is very simple, maybe to appeal to more readers, I don't know. It's not nessecarily a bad thing, but I thought that some things could be elevated more. I'm really not feeling this. It just seems to get more and more into an "emo" sort of song, but with a street theme. It seems very played to me. This reminds me of something I would've written when I first started. I've read so much better from you, I don't know what to think about this. Maybe you really wanted to do something different from your other writings. I'm really no one to judge but this just isn't my cup of tea. The tone seemed so...I don't know the word, but it's not good. Lack of imagery. To be real, I don't like this piece at all. It's not that it's bad per-se' but I just can't connect to it right. It's not written to my liking. Maybe it's just me, who knows. If I had to leave some tips, work on something more real to your heart, something more than the "I'm a street kid and god hates me" topic. Keep writing man.

    Pretty Nice Kaotic.

    Your great vocabluary stood out to me through the first line, and it made me read....As the story progressed, the vocab got even better. and the story line got interesting, Your flow was nice, and structure was great. Nothing much i can critique about this, just to say a nice piece from you man, Keep it up.

    Peace
