Poem of Flaws

I was inspired by dazzilitchigirls poem.

My poem

An open book has not been read

A restless soul has long since lead

A warrior sings an open tune

A life goes by in one short moon

People are judged as time goes by

People are met with an honest lie

One hopes to never leave so simply

But captured sickness has no sympathy

A newborn bird fails to fly

A clock stops ticking as time goes by

A ready tiger has no claws

The world we know of is full of flaws

People are judged as time goes by

People are met with an honest lie

One hopes to never leave so simply

But captured sickness has no sympathy

One lost a leg. One lost an arm.

They are bullied, But it's no harm

Some fail to see what is the truth

Some lives are like an empty booth

People are judged as time goes by

People are met with an honest lie

One hopes to never leave so simply

But captured sickness has no sympathy

It is quite good.

I never could get the hang of poetry.

That's way better than my poem! The meaning's not obvious, you have to think about it. All I can do is make plain sentences rhyme, but you make it seem more musical.

No, you have WAYY better poem skills than I do.

I like it! It could be sung as a song as well.
