Atrocity empowered by my mind
Bumbling for reasons to justifly anger
Chaos and confusion
Damned because theres to much
Emotion, allowing to much
Feeling, trying to kill my content with you
Giving more than I beleive I recieve
Hungry for a little regularity
I'm making myself mad
Justifing why I'm a jerk to you
Killing my chances
Loosing my place
Making you think twice
Not wanting to come back
Opression of you
Pressing you out in my confusiong
Quit thinking about it
Reoccuring when I'm disapointed
Starting when its not what I wanted, expected
To you I'm a jerk
Urging you to question me, knowing I'll be silent
Verifing it by my refusla to cooperate
What I want is to notthink about it
x-ray my mind
You'll find my heart
Zipping between what I want and what I'm

"what I want and what I'm" is very cool... I was looking for the missing word, until I realized it meant "what I am."  Way to keep me guessing.  

I think for critiques, I have to say there's too many "ing" words.  It seems to ramble.  Try and cut it up a bit more, into smaller pieces, and phrase each one independently.

You'll have more success with flow that way, and the poem will probably sound a lot better too.

Keep writing.

Man! If I didn't read Local's first line on the reply I would have just stayed there like ".................huh?"
Nicely done. I liked the poem, but don't do that again!

Hope to see more

For some reason, my warped mind actually picked up on the "I'm" thing. Groovy!
