What kind of poetry is this consider?

Question:i just wrote this and it may not be that great but i wanted to know if this would be considered as free verse. i was thinking about entering it into a poetry competition

it's been months that i've felt
felt for a person with no feeling
i bow my head
with shame
ashamed of this unbalance
while my stomach is expanding
and the seasons are slowly changing
i become spiritless
my heart becomes angry
it shatters within me
and i cry
my tears fall
and they take my love with them
plopping beneath my feet
as i pace the room
the sun is shining
but my face does not

Yes, it is free verse.

Metred poetry would have a constant rhythm, ti TUM ti TUM ti TUM for example. Your poem does not, it uses natural speech patterns.

This is a pefectly valid thing to do.

Ignore the people who tell you free verse shows no skill. This is nonsense. A great many published poets write free verse. Ezra Pound even went as far as saying: "As regarding rhythm: to compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in sequence of a metronome."

There is however, good poetry, bad poetry, and all shades between. There is good formal poetry, and good free verse. I choose to enjoy both.

I think that it is freeverse but i might be wrong... great poem by the way

It is crap. Ever heard of rhyme, rhythm, assonance, alliteration, simle ... I guess not. What you wrote isn't poetry, it is a random collection of words, compiled randomly.

There isn't a shred of skill in that. Look at what real poetry is and learning some basics before any more attempts.

Nice poem
It talks about feelings of
shame bowing head down
It also talks about anger
How true that the seasons are slowly changing
but I would say one drags on while the other three
go so quickly
Its been months since I felt a person with no feeling
unless it was suppose to read felt felt

1 thing....I don't like the word "plopping"
I don't feel that it fits the tone...I'm not sure what i would put instead, but I'll get back to you on that... =)
