abuseWhat do you mean you are not a poet? This is really good. Complicated subject matter but very artistically handled. I like it.

abuseGood Heavens, it is amazing to see a writer so in tune with God that he can write about Him. Ive tried, and it always turns out goofy. Very well written, my friend! I think all of us can relate, and I love how you didn't make your rhyming mechanical. You stopped a thought when it was done, not when it seemed like it should be. Very well done! In any case, in response to your question, I've never even heard the Enya song. looking it up might be cool. Thanks for your review and the witness you put up here on fictionpress!

Affectionately,

abuseThis is a very touching poem. I like it very much. There was one stanza where the flow seemed a tad 'off', if you catch my drift (stanza six) but the rest of this is absolutely beautiful! You write very well.

abuseVery interesting, personally revealing poem. It (very loosely) reminds me of Robert Browning's "Cleon," where a pagan thinker could not reject his beliefs and accept Christianity not because he didn't believe it, but out of intellectual pride. I like this poem very much. I think there might be some spacing typos in the stanza beginning "Always clumsy," but otherwise, this is flawlessly done.

abuseI think every Christian feels this way at one point of their life. Still, God is good, He gives us chances. This was a stunning poem. I love it!

abuseThe rhythm is briliant. This poem is fantastic and well written and has an intresting aproach to the subject.

Thanks for the review and answering my question. I appreaciate your thoughts on the subject. But I was writing in an Atheists view so I didnt particularly the feelings of Christians in that situation. If any offence was caused i apoligise and thanks again for your thoughts on the subject :)

abuseThis is fantastic. You've done really well on the rhythm, and I definitly get a strong impression of a not-very-nice person. You've done a really good job. I love it, you're a great writer/poet (take your pick) :)

abuseI really liked that. I enjoyed the rhythm. That was brilliant. I'm pretty much speechless, i have no idea how to praise you..or how to wipe this smile off my face. I really enjoyed this and that's all i can say with trying to find you and hug out your guts...oops...that sounds weird.

abuseHey!! I love your poem. It has a very very nice and intense flow. Though,

"And then blank stare"

doesn't sound right. "a blank stare" I'm guessing.

"Always insincere"

This line seems to break the good flow you have there. Perhaps make it a wee bit longer? The only way I see it flowing properly is if insincere was seperated by syllable.

I hope you don't mind my nitpicking...with work this good you've got to look closer for the flaws...look closer to help others improve. Don't worry, i loved your poem!!

By the way, your on my author alert and favorite authors list. And, this poem is on my favorite stories lisT!! Your in good company there...trust me.

Hope my 2 cents helped!!

abuseVery cool. I love the paradox in this poem. Not real sure how to describe it...

Anyway, this poem felt very honest, in a aw sort of way, which I think is a sign of a talented writer. And I love how you combine the italics and regular face print... it gives a contrast between thought ad reality, altough it is hard to tell which is which sometimes. Not that that is necesarily a bad thing...

I really liked it. Keep it up!

abuseI absolutely love the line "but walking dust with borrowed time?"! You are eloquent! I don't understand the last two lines, though. Are you praising God's glory or questioning who He is?

abuseIs thoughtful and something I can't really relate to, myself. I know a few people who may wish to see this, it's an excellent mirror.
