Hey, I’m just posting some poetry for some general feedback.

Don’t mid a bit of constructive criticism :) thanks

I watch him as he lays there,
My father
So small in that hospital bed.
In ten years not a day spent,
together,
Still memories crowd my head.

On the hard plastic chairs in
that side room,
I watch as he draws his last breath,
Not one tear do I let fall
even then,
My shame, the only thing left.

I walk back to the carpark
without him,
My thunderous heart in my ears,
Grief, like a shroud draws around
me, spiked with
regret for those wasted years

I’m so sorry for your loss.
But about your poem, it is very deep and full of sorrow, great Poem!
