So basically, what I'm saying is to try harder. If I didn't keep responding to you, this post would most likely sink into Novice obscurity after a day or two.Ok, that's your critique, I guess the message I was trying to get across was to be more constructive.

But help is what would be appreciated. If you don't see anything in this poem then I'm confused as to why you would choose to comment on it, of all the threads out there. And I find it funny you find the second part overused when you I think you don't even know what some of the words mean.
Other people might see something more than I do in what you have here. But I see nothing but trite utterances after the first stanza. The first stanza is sort of trite too, but at least it sounds pretty.
