A friend of mine used a website where he posted poetry he wrote and people would review it. Any one have any ideas what are some possible sites?

I’ve been doing it for a few months now, and i’m just wondering, is it normal? I find it a helpful way to release pent up emotions like anger and sadness. Most boys i know would consider it a feminine thing, and i know that they would be laughing at me for ages. My english teacher seemed quite surprised when i entered the school poetry competition, just wondering how you guys view it.
Here’s something i wrote a while back (can’t get it all on here);

Where are you now, my only star,
I have searched my heart, looked out far.
I’m blind, deaf and dumb, without your hand,
As my heart dies, I cannot stand.

I feel icy waves wracking my heart,
Pain spiking to every part.
Black thoughts to cloud my head,
On evil thoughts, my lust is fed.

I feel like I’m drowning, drowning in loss,
My sanity is leaving, passing across.
I cannot control it, my feral lust,
I want to rip and kill, I can’t, I must.

My dead hand wraps around the cold lifeless steel,
Its firm and hard, the only thing that’s real.
I gather my wits, and push open the door,
Out on a mission, sanity no more.

The streetlights flicker into life,
Unholy beams bounce of my knife,
I knock at his door, tool in hand,
Preparing to strike, a blow that will land.

The door creaks open, slowly at first,
I see his dark eyes, greedy with thirst.
I lunge with the knife, straight into his gut,
I plunge in deep, to widen the cut.
The blood is warm, the flesh feels good,
This is what I need, I can’t, I would.
His blood on my skin, staining my soul,
But I feel good, my lust under control.

He deserves what he got, for his sinful crime,
He ***** me once, but for the last time.
He lies here now, dead at my feet,
His cursed arms, falling into the street.

I turn and run, through fresh rain,
I’ve done what I must, am I insane?
You may not see me, ever again,
I may not come back, what will you do then?

Omid asked:


i know that everyone write poetry and it needs to be good, but this project that i been working on since four years ago is coming along so i would like to sell it and have others hear it. i have tried Lulu, ebay, greeting cards, and they are not what i am looking for. I am not trying to become a millioner, i just want to find a place where i can sell or get a job writting poetry for…Please let me know if you can guide me in any sort of way. As far as my poems they are all written for the time ahead of me…I am twenty one but i write about divorce, depression, lonley women, hear broken man.
