Can someone please read my poems, 8 Months, 1 Week ago  
Sadness:

A sharp jab here, a gentle shove there,
Has never hurt me until this day,
Brought to sadness not by physical hurt,
But through words o so curt,
This pain I will never say,
I'll just pretend I don't care......


Last breath:

I feel the enemy fire,
Ripping away my barricade,
My life flashes before my eyes,
Of my parents,
Of my wife,
Of my kids,
And how I might never see them again,
B A M!!!,
I feel my life fade away.......


The Hunted:

Dead of night,
The moon lends its light,
Traveling rugged ground,
Making not a sound,
A snarl heard behind,
I run from his kind,
I hear his pace quicken,
I think i'll taste like chicken.

Soldier:

A showdown to the end,
None of their wills will bend,
Bullets flying past,
A man's memories will always last,
Of all the trials he has fought,
And of everything he has sought,
To return to his home land free,
To a family he yearns to see.

That is it lol. Please comment and help me!!

Soldier is a good one, it really has the tone of hopelessness and war and brings you there. Good work!

Perhaps you're concentrating on structure and rhyming words too much? But then again perhaps that's the way you want to go about it, who knows.

I've never been a fan of following a set structure for poems, and rhyming words can be limiting. I like that the poems are short and sweet, but I think in a few places the effort to rhyme sabotages the seriousness or quality. Like, 'I hear his pace quicken, I think I'll taste like chicken'??? I'm sure if you weren't concentrating on fullfilling the structure and word rhymes you wouldn't have come up with something like this.

lol they dont have a set structure and ryhming is the best thing ever. The line in the hunted is a funny touch to something dark.... its what i do. Anyway your comment is accepted but i find that ryhming only limits those who are too lazy to find a dictionary/thesarus. LOl O_O
