前几日四川汶川发生了8.0级强烈地震，顿时摧毁了几万人的生命与家园。余震不断发生，我也被迫到广场避震。夜深人静，躺在冰冷而又潮湿的广场上，想到今年的一场场灾难，我写下了这篇Tonight I Can Write the Saddest Lines（今夜我可以写出最悲壮的诗篇）。现附在下面，希望大家批评：

Tonight I Can Write the Saddest Lines

Tonight I lie on the cold and wet ground
Feeling that I can hear the saddest sound
The sound is from no where but the quake site
That makes me the saddest lines to write

With a pen, I ask the Heaven in the sky
Why You made us suffer by and by

You led People into disaster by snow
You made all and all homes full of woe
You killed our people by striking the train
That brought all families pains again

You destroyed homes and homes by the quake
And killed children and children in the shake
If you are not staying in such a damned height
I will climb up to fight you with no fright

I get to my paper with dim and dim light
And have got the saddest lines to write
Tonight I can write the saddest lines
For lying in the darkest moon-shines

Tonight I can write the saddest line
For the death of all friends of mine
Tonight I can write the saddest lines
For the coming of tomorrow’s sushines

押韵不错

That makes me the saddest lines to write
是倒装句子么 to 是多余的吧
还是make sb sth句型那样能加不定式吗
商榷

you 有的地方没有大写

gain 作痛苦解时不用复数吧

last but not least
it is not the Heaven who is not to blame in a disaster
in my opinion

nowhere, not no where.
infinitive after verb make is used without to.
heaven and sky are the same idea.

use repetition of words only when necessary.

问好新朋友译心译意
我要没有猜错你这个名字可能和中国对外翻译出版公司出版的那一套关于翻译的小册子有关系
呵呵
开个小玩笑轻松的问好朋友

谢谢批评，只是这句That makes me the saddest lines to write，不好改啊，结构是make sb do sth，That makes me write the saddest lines，可是我想把write置于句末，若去掉to，That makes me the saddest lines write，总觉得不大通顺。

Here I use repetition of words only for emphasis.
I'm wondering whether it is right or not.

The sound is from no where but the quake site
That makes me the saddest lines to write

看在诗歌的份上这种不通顺也是允许的
要不换韵也可
比如
The sound is from nowhere but hometown of mine
That makes me write the saddest line

line 单数也可
