    This is an unusual poem very well written. Very thought provoking about what passion or the lack thereof can effect someone
    I enjoyed reading this one

    I guess I better add more, since I give you a 2-liner. My bad. I think the title was really unique and it fit the poem really well. I love how you used the word "Murder" in you poem here. That was unique.
    "I was the murderer
    And love was the crime
    My words were the weapon
    And death was the time"
    ``Like in this stanza.. it was used in a unique way. This stanza summed it all up and I loved the way it was worded. Very powerful.

    Overall, a great write. I wouldn't change a thing on this one. The rhyme/flow are both consistant and make the poem sound great.

    This is a lyrical poem that reads like a ballad.
    I think this was easier to catch the meaning of than most

    Wow. This poem is.. amazing. It was sad, and emotional.

    The funeral came five days later
    A suicide note was read
    "Without your love,I am nothing"
    Is all it ever said"

    -- In the third line, there should be a space after the comma.

    That's the only thing I noticed that should've been different.

    My favourite stanza is this:

    "I was the murderer
    And love was the crime
    My words were the weapon
    And death was the time"

    -- LOOOVE that. The rhyming is awesome!

    *Overall; you've written a good piece. Keep it up.

    "I was the murderer
    And love was the crime
    My words were the weapon
    And death was the time "

    Made me think, wont say what about, that is my secret, but bene!

    Heart wrenchingly cold.
    Spinechillingly wicked.
    I like the story you portray.
