The diction, the syntax, the grammer.. horribly incorrect, regardless it accomplishes the goal of a basic poem--expressing emotion.  Tear it up.


You struggle to hide
Words more malignant than benign
My façade never cracks
Salvage your pride  
You let your obsession blind you
Pessimism clouds your sagacity
I only did what I thought was valid
Blame me for all that (edited by moderator) you’ve been through
No one had ever hurt you
No, nothing until me
I turned my head when you crossed the line
I reached out when you clung to edge
Words stifled by your actions
Entwined in a sticky web of deception
The story changes erratically
Word-games set the scene for disgrace
Each day a new snare emerges
No haven, no asylum
You were dealt a bad hand
My confusion unacceptable,
My answers never fitting,
Rules no longer govern the game
There lies a void inside you
Your dark abyss I cannot fulfill


"all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence"- Emerson

This is a very emotional work. A lot of anger comes from it. Very moving, keep the good stuff coming
