Only a feeling

Only a feeling  It’s only a feelingI’ve felt it beforeNothing lessNothing moreIt’s only a thoughtWaving good-byeNothing I can’t handleI’ve felt it before.It’s only lifeUrging me onThinking of things that are goneIt’s only a momentIn my eternityA temporaryWonderfulPainful ExtraordinaryPart of me.

HI

hi, this piee is nice. there are many things that make up us, undersytand what i mean. i think this poem uses element f enjambment. enjambment is supposes to make the reader enjoy it more. but, your poem doesnt make a good use of this enjambment (only in my personal opinion). better learn it wholly.

Enajmbement

J.B. Longo-Geremia Thank you, my friend for reading me and for your comment. I use this rhetorical and poetic device to carry the verse and theme on to the next line, thus creating a spiraling continuum towards the poem's climax at the same time bringing the reader on a slow journey of discovery. It also emphasises meter and rhyme scheme as well as giving emphasis to key words. Dante used the TERZA RIMA in his DIVINE COMEDY which, essentially, had a similar effect. I am no Dante, but I did enjoy the "circular" movement of his poetry. Thanks again... Joe
