this isn't for homework -- just an opinion. what do you guys think this poem is about?, or what do you think about how it is written? any opinions at all would be good. :]
a heart nailed to a tree
fenced in and out of reach
you watched the crucifixion that lasted years
screams against deaf ears
helped surfaced brand new fears:
that your arms would never stretch for enough
that this heart could never be saved
that those shouts may never be heardor that the heart you wanted would change
when the torture was complete
the gate was open and the heart was free
a steady crescendo with each new beat
it lay bloodied under autumn's changing leaves
straining against the loudest sound
of the happy, bright thing you've found
a realization (something great could grow here someday)
a determination (maybe it is always all the same)
that could rip stars straight out of the sky
i have no right to ask this
i know i had my chance to try
but something about all of this
won't let me watch it die
you're happy in a safe placeprobably with greener grass and far less gore
i want to put that old smile on your face
i promise not to let you down anymore this wasted field is your place
the heart is always yours

Wow,
Did you write that? It is very good.
I would say it's about overcoming hurt, Loosing someone close to you and it hurts so badly that you feel that your pain is beyond help and no matter how much it hurts nobody can feel that pain but you know in time that pain will heel and you will become strong enough to conquer anything and anyone.
I should start writing again, You've inspired me. I've been writing since I was 9 years old and I'm 23 now. I think I'll pick it up again :)

Aw, thanks so much. Yeah, I wrote it, so for the compliments, and the analysis. That's sort of what it's got to do with. :]
WHOO GO WRITING. :P
