I'm not good with introductions, so my name is Heatherlynne, I'm 17, and this poem is really bad, but I'm going to post it anyway. I'll be around commenting and posting...

Yo-Yo in Disguise

You bring me up slowly,
hold me in your hand,
firm grip, holding tight,
only to quickly release
my heart and mind,
from your strong grasp.
you walk me around,
like i'm a puppy dog,
dragging and scraping,
my feelings on the floor.
you spin me around the world,
making me dizzy and confused,
and when your done,
you stuff me back in a drawer,
only to come back later
to use me, over and over again.

-heatherlynne-

I can't see how this is a bad poem.  The example you used with the yo-yo really fit what your saying.  Welcome to Passions!!!!  And don't be so quick to judge your work, I loved it, in my library, hope to see more of your work soon!!!  

Welcome to Passions again!!!

Read my work and read my thoughts
I'll go back into the night now
