    There is this man, whose all alone
    It has been that way for years
    For the place he calls home
    Is a memorial for her tears.

    ^ This stanza seems as if it has too many words, I guess.. ? Lol. I think it would sound a bit better like :
    " There's this man, all alone,
    it's been this way for years.
    For, the place he calls home,
    is her memorial of tears."
    --------
    "She thought he'd always understand
    And she'd never feel out of place"
    -----
    ^ The word feel doesn't go with stanza. I think it would sound better with the word fall, or be.
    -------
    "It is 3 in the morning, he's not there
    She is tired of his lies"
    -----
    ^ The last line I think would sound better like " And, she's tired of his lies."
    --------
    "He can barely even talk."
    -----
    ^ I think you should add the word "as" at the beginning.
    -------

    This was a really sad poem. And, though I think that a few things would sound better, I loved this poem. I hope you don't take the above the wrong way. I don't mean it in a bad way, eh. Because, this is like one of the best poems I've read today. Even with it's little "problems" it's amazing, and it has a lot of meaning and potential.

    GREAT JOB!
