Shape

This is it, it's nearly over, part of me is leaving forever. Watch me grow and run away, in what direction will be where you say. Although I may look like me, I live through others and will never be free. My mind is numb, strung and dumb I await your orders to leave or come, 'cos on your leash I'll always remain, stuck this way cold and strained. Shape my world and shape my life without me knowing or seeing the light, lost and broken I may be but it's all I know, so don't blame me. Now hot and heavy I stand here, the crossroads present but still unclear. It scares me how much I need you to tell me what I should do; so help me please, be my eyes. Shape my future...Shape my life...

This words are very nicely put.
The only advice from me to you is that perhaps you could have structured the poem a bit better.
Other than that I liked it.
Hope to read more soon...

I think its a very intresting piece...like ur compelled to be what someone else wants you to be and have been for so long that you do not know how to be free of that so you sadly accept that fate

Peace and happiness to us all, Venus

I like to desolate picture you paint and the desire, the need to be led.

I agree with Venus on it's like you are compelled to be someone that another person has created. Yet, it's almost like you don't care that you are and that you are stating a fact. I find that to be an interesting aspect to the poem... all in all I liked this a lot; the wording was great like said above

It was a very captivating write! Thanks for sharing

Quite desolate. I Like it a lot! i could relate to this quite well. Keep up this awesome work

A sign in  the wind
The fatal last breath
Soft prelude to death
Alone
Amidst black roses
