. Poems are notoriously difficult to 'check', Volcano-- the poet may have other priorities than grammar, punctuation, or meter. Here are a few things I would fix:
Heaven
What's that to me if the end of the world will come, If the way of life will finish I want now? I have no fear; I am happy. I loved the love with you in my lifetime.
The name of the lines on my face is you-- You are the reason for my every breath.
If I come to the world again, my darling, I will look for you, I will love you again. I wouldn't change heaven for a strand of your hair. I will love you as long as I live.
Beyond the lack of punctuation, my main observation is that this is not a poem; it is a plaint. Why do you think that you have written a poem, Volcano? . _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

Hi Volcano
Do you mean it's a translation? From some other language into English?

| Yes it is.I translated it from Turkish to English.Every time i see some differences in these translations.For example some fixs don't give the same meaning.I think it is ok because languages have their own specialities |
