Mesmerized I watch,
in silence.
Eyes swim with tears,
the single droplet escapes.
Leaving a trail,
of slug-like silver.
Down cheek
to tremble,
cling on chin
and take flight.
Free at last,
no resistance.
Pain like
a starburst,
on impact,
melts into the breast.
Repeating, refrain,.
over and over again;
“I am sorry
Forgive me
I am sorry
Forgive me”
Is it real or
only a test.

Hi. I read your poem and I have to agree with vampiredust. Keep writing. You're doing a good job. :)

Good

but could be tightened further. The feeling has been done well but you need to avoid stale language and cliches. The title is cliched, for example.

I liked the lines:

"Leaving a trail,

of slug-like silver"

More of that is needed in the poem.

Still, a good start
