I liked this poem alot, for an older poem it still really showed greatness throughout it. I've read a few of your latest poems and you have improved alot from this, but i can tell poetry comes naturally to you as it was also great in this. Well done~mel
This poem i well expressed and full of meaning, but there was a stanza i think you should fix (just my opinion)
I try to wash the stains
Like a mask I wear these tears
I try to hide it from the world
Im not doing too well without you here
Im not doing too well without you here.. urm i think this is a bit forced if you understand what i mean i do it myself sometimes how about .... 'The truth is the heart does fear'
