very nice. I particularly liked the one "stop the world I wanna get off" because of that being a wish that many people want at a point. But only get off when it's your stop. Don't jump off too early :)

I hope this helps and that you continue to make great writing.

DEFINITELY YES. I think anyone can relate to all of these. Nothing has spoken my life more than this has right now.

[Isabelle Faye]

I like it, the way you used the words of others to speak your own. Do you mind if I use this idea? If not, that's fine. I would give you credit for it.

[Anthony Q Armstrong]

Use it, I don't care. But thank you for asking.

[Bats In The Belfry]

I like the simplistic raw honesty of this write. Nice job!

I niether thought that life can be such complicate In mere quotes.The life is full of paradox circumstances and you depicted them well.You def keep poetic qualityYour piece has an emotional appeal which is quiet appreciative.keep writing.:-)

So, depressing for lack of a better word. Good, but sad.
I like 'Stop the world, I wanna get off."
reminds me of a line from The Producers- "Stop the world, I wanna get on."
Funny how a one letter difference can change the meaning completely

"stop the world, i wanna get off".

i cry without wanting or needing to, and get shunned.Kinda sucks. good write.

this kind of reminds me of an exercise I did for a creative writing class. We had to make a collage poem using magazine cutouts--go through and clip out phrases or words and create a poem. I recognize some of these quotes, nicely done. Glad to see you're experimenting. Only suggestion, the black and red color distracts me. I understand it's supposed to illuminate the meaning, but color in poems has never been a trait I can appreciate. Thanks for sharing.

Your poem was difficult for me to read. On my screen it shows as red on black with not enough contrast between the background and print. After wiping off the smudges left on my monitor by my nose, your poem has some interesting thoughts. At times life really is a struggle, two steps up the hill and we slide one step back, or something like that. But our only choice is to continue, savoring those small moments when things are successful.

How is the color now?

[Pencrafter]

Sorry to take so long to reply. The 'Cafe' site had a little glitch and prevented me from answering review comments. Now it works. Your new color of green on black is indeed easier to read. Thanks.
