Identity

by Tony Casale   Dec 19, 2007


You have never seen me
beyond my exterior
to my inner identity
How could you?
wrapped up in your
shallow thoughts of me
if you could only see
my true identity.
You would see no one
will treat you better then me
I could be any thing you need
everything you want me to be
for you id change my identity
id change all that is me
my true identity

    I guess this poem isn't really 'dark' but nice job. Can't criticize much cos I don't think i'm entitled to but maybe just work a little on the words? I dunno but for me i think this piece can be expanded into prose rather than poetry..or maybe that's just coz i think prose is easier.
    Good job though :)

    Always we seek to identify ourselves, and to have others identify us as we wish.
    Your poem is deep, and I do not, personally, think it needs any work.
    Delightful read.

    The poem is good, I can't really criticize it. The way you spaced the lines made it flow nicely and made it more dramatic, I would suggest that you add some more descriptions, if anything, but its fine the way it is.
