I can't feel anything

I can't feel anything

A Poem by Akshat♥
"

These days i feel like nothing...people understand me in a wrong way.. if i say something..things will get worse ..

"
I can't feel anything
not a single space

Impossible to conceive  
why people react in different  ways

Sometimes I feel like crying
taking my emotions coming from behind..

If you judge me that means you don't love me 
Its hard to express,
harder to impress..

Sometimes clearing doubts 
does not solve anything
a hint of pain can be seen

You can trust someone once
but you cannot hate them twice

Life is always balanced
You have to think wise

Stand yourself back
Give them another chance
I really can't go on this way

Because I can't feel anything
not a single space

The turbulent emotions in this piece overwhelm the reader and flow seamlessly from one strong statement to another. I think this piece shows the weary side of someone who daily puts a piece of themselves out only to be misunderstood. We all feel this way at one point or another, but i also have to add that it created a very powerful piece of poetry as well. Phenomenal work.

This is incredibly relevant to how I am feeling, so it definitely strikes a chord with me. Very honest. I hope it served as some catharsis for you.

Although I feel that some of the lines in this poem were awkward, like in the third stanza for instance, overall I liked this poem. The feelings of existential frustration and anhedonia are conveyed in the two lines that act as the opening and the closing of the poem, and in between you wrote pretty haunting stuff. Few of the lines stand themselves for being pretty and there isn't much imagery, but that actually suits this work IMO. The simpler, more minimalist approach lends the poem a sense of listlessness which I think is what you were going for.

A couple of lines that did stand out for me were: "You can trust someone once
but you cannot hate them twice"; I Read it as meaning that you can only trust someone so long as they never breach that trust, but you can only hate someone a finite amount...idk if that's correct, but anyways it was provocative.

"Wow" that was something. A different way in your writing style and its like for every two verses is a connection of question and answer. I just love the two verses "Its hard to express; Harder to impress..." That was wonderful and some of the other peices too because they really seemed like unique ideas. Well done

Hating people twice, that is a smashing, profound thought to play with.
I hate that song: Feelings, but Stoicism will only get one so far.

Sometimes it seems that every turn is a curve or dead-end. In moments like that you can only save yourself and blowout the doors holding you down and maybe just maybe the ones you have to leave behind follow along and if it's meant to be you will find them in due time.

I find this a bit mixed up and the thoughts jumbled. I found this particular sentence interesting:
'You can trust someone once
but you cannot hate them twice'

I can't feel anything
not a single space
(How can you feel space?)

Impossible to conceive  
why people react in different  ways
(Nice, nice...)

Sometimes I feel like crying
taking my emotions coming from behind..
(The second line of this stanza does not make sense. Maybe taking emotions from behind, perhaps?)

If you judge me that means you don't love me 
Its hard to express,
harder to impress..
(That 2nd-3rd lines are very random and there is some forced rhyming here.)

Sometimes clearing doubts 
does not solve anything
a hint of pain can be seen
(Again this doesn’t flow. The sentences don’t seem to connect.)

You can trust someone once
but you cannot hate them twice
(Trust and hate are not part of the same paradigm. It should be trust/doubt; love/hate)

Life is always balanced
You have to think wise
(Again random)

Stand yourself back
Give them another chance
I really can't go on this way
(*Stand back.)

Because I can't feel anything
not a single space
(I’m fan of repetition)

Your poem did not make any sense to me and it was follow the narrators thought process. I thought would be about the narrator feeling numb and depressed that he/she can’t express or feel emotions. But this was just mish of mash ideas that were written in elegiac way.

Also if you have time please review some of my poems. Thank You!
