I'm reviewing this based on the contest so basically in comparison to the other entries. I liked your poem but for me a couple of the others just pipped it. But I will say this, you make an intersting point, either deliberately or inadvertently, that if you try to hold in one emotion you'll only cause another to pop out.

Feelings are definitely for those who care and not for those who fear a happy moment as if they will have to pay.
All good and bad have to pass. That's life.

    Hi Melba! I am glad you understood this. I wrote it about myself, sometimes I do feel I have no right for happiness. It's a nutty feeling, but a real one at times. Thank you for this honest and kind review...

I liked this smooth read. It had a nice, consistent rhyme scheme, too. It sure ended up being a sad story, was actually charged with feelings throughout. Good luck. katz

nice artwork...
as well as a great rhyme scheme....
good form...
my fav. lines:

" Feelings are for those who care
Not those who live a lie "

true in nature...
you can not live a full-filling life with-in a lie...
great opener...

" And feelings are an extra fare
To help us do or die "

relative in the sense of Karma, in how it reflects our actions and how we spend our " fares " or cash-in the good, the bad and the ugly aspects of life...

good work...

A very expressive piece on 'feelings' as I would expect it to be. I like the rhyming pattern and the format...I like the fact the the dishonest among are not entitled to their feelings...maybe

    Thank you ZOOCQ, I agree, maybe. This is just a poem, I do not know the answers that's for sure! Thank you for this very kind review.

We all have our down days. I found this poem to reflect this very well. Your formatting enhanced this piece as well. This was just a delight to have read and written a review for... John
