i can't stop hiding

one more whord
one more ryme
here we go
one more time

read my problems
read my strife
go ahead
peer into my life

look at my brain
search for my soule
just be careful
not to fall in to a hole

where darkness is
and depression life
where you can see
my desprite tries

look for my hart
tell me of it's there
and tell me if it's big enough
to ask me if i even care

look through my eyes
become me for a day
but then know why
i want to get away

A very interesting read although the two spelling mistakes in the first stanza were quite off putting, anyway keep on writing and thanks for sharing

i like the simplicity of the way you wrote this poem, although the words in it aren't

I thought it was great. Some spelling erros, but I read the poem as if they were intended Very well done.

Love your critique message.  Love it!

Well I do have some criticism:  Try not to use the overused rhymes, that are time-rhyme, life-strife... life-strife is absolutely notorious, everyone uses it because "life" has to be rhymed so often in poetry.

One way to get around these restrictive rhymes controlling the content of your poem, is to try and reword lines so that the ending word is more easily rhymed.  

I like the simplicity, like everyone else said, and the poem itself is alright... just had to mention that about rhyming though.
