    I love the first and last stanza, which is the same. Actually, I like that the beginning is also the ending, it fits perfectly in the poem.
    I wouldn't change anything to this poem, I love it just the way it is.

    There seems to be a lot of poems on this topic on this site. I have no doubt that they are all really heartfelt, but from a poetic point-of-view the common thread is that they are starkly desolate and concentrate almost exclusively on the physical aspect with barely a regard for the emotional aspect.

    Lines like "Purple hand marks covered my tanned back everyday" just don't strike the right chord because "tanned" is superfluous to the context.

    I felty like you wanted to tell us so much, and draw us into the character's world, but the last stanza just left me with a feeling of hopelessness.

    I just feel this is a very desloate poem and as a result: an unenjoyable and dour read. Sorry.

    I liked how you ended with the same stanza that you started with. Over all the poem was good. It was very emotional. If you're in this type of situation, you do not deserve this, and if you ever need anyone to talk to, pm me and ill try my best to help out. Keep up with the writing, you're very talented.

    The fifth stanza is kind of off for me. The rest of it is fantastic... but the fifth just doesn't make sense quite the same. It's cryptic, it doesn't rhyme as well, I dunno.

    Good I like it idk about the last sentence
    "Of wanting to leave this horrible world that God designed."
    if your going to make the sentence sad and negative whats the reason for putting God in it? lol

    but overall great

    5/5

    God Bless

    Wow. Nat, this poem was so sad yet so wonderful. The imagery was well done. Every word flowed flawlessly. Your such a beautiful writer, you've got a way with words.

    I especially this part of the poem:

    "Purple hand marks covered my tanned back everyday,
    I'd cry at night telling myself it would all be okay.
    A tough knight in shining armor would come rescue me,
    Releasing me from her prison, setting me free."

    It brought tears to my eyes. Keep your head up high darlin. And Take care.

    ilu. 5/5
