Beautiful song! It's so true, yet so sad... :)

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this.
But you know I love it...
Really, really Amazing poem!
And it is so true...
Post more stuff!
Everyone has left poor fictionpress, for livejournal...
COME BACK!

I know the feeling of trying to numb oneself to everything... But if one is numb, all feelings, good and bad, are lost... OK enough philosophy class... The "just don't break it" at the end adds a lot to the poem.

Mnn... lovely. I like this quite a lot. Particularly the first chorus. Sounds like a song I'd like listening to...

Fantastic! I write songs myself, you know. You did a great job here! Keep up the excellent work! :o)

That is gorgeous and true and utterly perfect!

I can relate to that. Especially after 9/11. When the news just keeps repeating something over and over again, sooner or later a person turns numb to it.

PS- thanks for reviewing my work, it means a lot.

Beautiful...and sadly, so true. I hear ya, awesome job, it's reality not fluffly and I like that. *grin*

This is yet another wonderful poem. It's the meaning in this poem that really catches you, and the way it can be compared to almost anything in today's world. But there are some lines that seem to make no sense, especially in the beginning. "And dying peers that won't combine"? It seems like they are just in there to make it rhyme. However, some of it is really good, especially towards the middle, where the meaning of the poem starts to hit you. Although some lines need a little bit of reworking, "a heart of stone" is such a good analogy for how people have learned to react to the news it seems to flow beautifully anyway.
