You gave me the wings to fly
Then you took away my sky

You gave me the light to see
Then you stole the sun from me

You gave me warmth all over
Then you took away my cover

You gave me reason to be
Then you took you away from me

No,  I won't rip apart what does not need
to be ripped...very true feelings expressed.
We have all felt these emotions..

This poem came straight from your soul. Poems like that don't need to be ripped apart or critiqued for that matter. A very heartfelt poem Oz, floria

I'm not good at leaving notes, so forgive me. I never know what to say when someone writes something that strikes a chord in me. I like it a lot

I'll bet we've all been there at one time or another, unless you are one who lives in a perfect world.  I especially liked the first two lines.  The sky is so vast, it seems to stretch across forever...sadly,  forever is only the eternity that poets write of.

You are not alone.....

Short, but true, and to the point.  Nothing to rip apart here.  Some of the best poetry is raw and straight out of your head and onto paper.
