    Wow! I loved this & can relate actually. What i loved about it was that its true, no matter how much time goes by sometimes we see, hear, smell something that reminds us of the past. And the hurt we have in the future. The last line really stood out for me "sanity is for the weak yet i walk the line" think thats how it went. Very real feelings shown in this. Nice work, once again we get to witness another ounce of your brilliance! 5/5.

    A vent? Talk about a out pour of emotions that completely overtakes the reader. I could so easily relate this to me in so many ways it was scary. Your heart beats deep sadness in every line and I love how you use some imagery in your line to give sight to your emotions and then you brought the poem to life with all that sadness in the lines. I liked how you had a strong central idea fro your poem and you stuck to it throughout the poem.

    "Some days you feel it;
    others, you pretend not to.
    little things jog my memory;
    nostalgia from within.
    addictive pain;
    memories of happiness.
    letting them go free;
    an impossible task.
    killing yourself;
    one memory at a time."

    This was my favorite section and it made one powerful opening for the reader. It draws the reader into the poem with all your feeling coming as a torrent. Yet, it was steady and smooth in flow. Many people can relate to your words and you have describe what it feels like whenever you try to move forward but you are haunted by the past and sometimes we like to be hurt by the pain of the past even if only in memory.

    In all, you did a great job at showing how you felt inside, which is important in a poem. You truly did pour out your heart and you did it in such a simplistic and powerful tone. This is defintely going on my nominated list! Great job and keep writing!

    You just pull the reader into your world with
    this bundle of emotion write. From start to
    finish it got my attention without having me to
    stray. The past is a terrible thing that keeps haunting us...take care.
