There Is No Tomorrow Poem by Conna Rice

There Is No Tomorrow

Rating: 4.0


All I can hear is screams 6
In this world of forgotten dreams.8
I'm living in a nightmare now; 8
I have to stop it and wake up somehow.10
In this world, dreams become nightmares,8
And screams are all that's left of prayers.8
Dreaming in a land of nightmares,8
In a world where nobody cares.8
Reliving the pain of the past,8
Every moment worse than the last.8
I fear I shall forever dwell 8
In this horrendous place called hell.8
At first, I thought that I was strong; 8
My life made sense, just like a song,8
But now, I see that I was wrong; 8
I could have fallen all along.8

I use syllable's to help me spell and to help keep the poem flowing

I really like this but line 4 doesn't fit right. It doesn't flow like the other lines do. Perhaps it you took out the it, so the line reads I have to stop and wake up somehow, or if you took out the 'and' so it reads I have to stop it, wake up somehow. It could just be me but I think it's just one syllable too long for the rest of the poem. The rest is great, though, perfect flow save for that one line. I really like it.

I hate to ask, but what do the numbers stand for?
