EThis isn't poetry at all!
There's lack of literary devices!
The stanzas are too straightforward
There is no emotionAnd most importantly,
Why are you not writing
What the crowd is writing?
Your poem is too dark
It needs more glitterWhat's that?
I'm a hypocrite?
People write about relationships and I don't bat an eye?That's because
Heartache is an universal topic
We can all sympathise
With the personas
Your plot is too foreign
Not everyone would understandOh? You're trying to raise awareness?
That's absurd
Your cries would be ignored
People would be indifferent
Open your eyes and ears
How many people weep for those
Who lost their lives
When it is shown on television?
How many are there?You want to prove me wrong?
Well fine
Show me that people would care
