sometimes before the day is over

sometimes before the day is over

A Poem by Abio Tom

sometimes before the day over
a plate i have broken
to mummy's dismay, the chores i have abandoned
food sometimes i forget, with the other kids i'm out playing
the mask of innocence i put on, to mummy i return hungry and ready for bed.

Sometimes before the day is over
the target cannot be met
the boss have a deficit to balance, and somebody have to go
someone is fired, to his family he returns
whats the next option he considers with tears

sometimes before the day is over
there's a heart that is made with silver, and yet another hurt
someone said goodbye to a lover
but life must continue

sometimes before the day is over
someone's heart has turned cold
its a goodbye and he's laid to rest
to his face we would never behold

sometimes before the day is over
all of my good plans i could not execute
the time raced faster than other days
my ink i cannot put to work
what will the next day look like i ponder
but a better tomorrow i have always hoped for.

You should take a second look at your grammatical errors, small they may be but a clean poem still reads better. Whenever you start a sentence, begin with a capitalized letter and don't write 'i' but 'I' but these errors don't make your poem less awesome, for I really like your poem and I can feel the emotions behind your words. The connection between your poems and yourself is one of a good link, so never stop writing even if people say something mean, just carry on and burn their negative comments down.

Good job :D
