Oh, this is a dark piece - and I can sense exactly, the spirit that gave birth to this well written, albeit disturbing poem.
I've been there!
I hope you dark days are done, my friend and that your morning of joy has come.
You gave me such a wonderful review, I thought I'd pop in and say hello.
Welcome to Fanstory, sholess and nice to meet you! :)

It is nice meeting you. Thank you for the nice review. This is one of my darker poems from my days, years, of depression. Things are better now.

Comment from Kiki12
Tremendously emotive. Dark but intense imagery. There is no ambiguity here as one looks on from another plane as their body is destroyed by things around it. A sense of hopelessness and loss. Depression very much has this fatalistic effect where you watch yourself decay and feel powerless to stop it. Giving in and giving up seem like the only option in such depths of darkness. Hopefully you have some help in the form of treatment and support.
As for the verse, the structure is very good. I would consider not capitalizing each line so it has a more connected and uninterrupted feel. Very well done.

Thank you for the excellent review, I am glad that the dark side of me is gone although I still have about a dozen depression poems to post.

Yep, that's usually the way it goes-I tend to post mine after the darkness lifts, just make an author's note so readers don't worry. Post away, my friend :)
Comment from Sam Mendonca
A very well written poem with great usage of descriptive and emotional wording from the writer.
The only suggestion I would have is maybe a photo to go along with the poem to give the reader an idea of the content of the poem.
Nicely done. :-)

Thanks for the revue. I am listing a bunch of poems written at my time of full depression. They are grim.

Comment from JeffreyVPerry
I do not envy this poem or poet. Your subject says little that we do not know already. And I question, "How did you know this?" I would hope that a dead body gets to lie in peace. Your writing of the morbid subject is as graceful as your subject.

I am sorry you did not like it.
Comment from playinaround
Wow, this is something I haven't thought of before. Witnessing your own body as it rots in the ground. I am guessing the feeling would be anger. or lack of control. Great piece!
