hey everyone. this is my first poem i'm actually posting in this forum. i like it, but i want to know what you think. i want real crtizism, tell me what you think honsetly.



Who are you?

this sick, twisted thing you do
just drives me further and further away
can't you see my fading self?
or are you blind like everyone else?


You are not the one i know
This thing as changed you
the one who has saved my sanity
from all my family's miserys.

I'm not the same girl you know
She had died years ago
with all my mixed thoughts
what the fuck is going on?

Bottle after bottle
Night after night
war plaugeing my mind
Thanks alot, your soo kind.


How can you not see?
What this is doing to me
Mother, you need to end it
Before You lose me completly

okay, the stuff in red I liked, or thought could sound good in a better context. Overall, I didn't really like your poem. It was okay, not terrible or anything, but certainly not in my taste. For one, I rarely like swearing in a poem and I think that line of thought can be translated much more intelligently and direct.
Also, I think this bit could be reversed a bit:

can't you see my fading self?
or are you blind like everyone else?


You are not the one i know
This thing as changed you

Perhaps, you could cut out the noun 'you' in one line or maybe two.


Think i think that's all I have to say, basically it's the same advice I give everyone: work on it and it will always get better.
Unless it's already perfect, and those poems are few and far between.
