Not My Time
A Poem by
Brandon Dunbar
I am feeling different
Not of the norm
My body is trembling
In the midst of the storm
I’ve lost control
My head starts to pound
My body goes limp
I collapse to the ground
Thoughts and memories
Flash in front of my eyes
I try to catch them
As my body starts to die
Somebody help me
I’m only in my prime
Please….can anyone help
It’s not my time

Your stanzas are short, sweet and to the point. Very good rhyme and flow. For a newbie you're pretty darn good! Keep writing, never give it up. I like this.

This sounds like an overdose.
Sad and realistic and all too common...
I give you an A(it'd be an A+ but i am just a bit stingy with my +es:P)

Great job! This flowed very nicely & used some intense language, particularly in the first stanza - I loved the word "storm" to reflect the chaos that you're feeling as you die, particularly when you know that you're not supposed to. Scary. Great read! :)

This was a very sad read for me. I have lost several students in the past few years and each loss feels this way - before its time.
I also think, however, on the fact that most of us will never really be ready to go.

Well to start off, I just started writing a little while back. I just decided to write one day out of pure boredom. Well I ended up writing 2 poems that day, and I got a very good response from them. ..
