eh...i don't think i'm too happy with this one.  lately everything i write seems to to instantly turn into crap.  please read and respond HONESTLY lol.  thanks everybody, luv you guys. -fear-

i miss you, there i said it.
god, am i that pathetic?
i barely know you
yet need you so
and i don't even understand my mind, heart, body, or my soul
i don't understand why i feel this way
and why i hope that you feel the same
i'm addicted i can't help it.
but that doesn't mean you have to cause me pain.
just walk away
i can handle it
but...i think i may love you.
what the hell?
do you know what love is?
and for that matter...do i?
i don't deserve you
but yet i don't deserve all this  pain.

-fear-

I really love your thoughts in this piece. I especally love the last two lines, very profound. You might want to watch your flow, though. That's really the only thing. Thanks for sharing.

I don't think that there's anything wrong with this one. Maybe you don't like it because it's expressing some really deep and sometimes hard to deal with emotions that you're feeling. This was a really good one!

This one looks almost as though it's conveying both an inner struggle within the speaker AND the relationship problems that he/she is enduring.  It thought it was rather interesting in that way.  As for constructive critique:

I know I say this a lot, but...

Try to structure your poetry more.  Make lines that have the same number of syllables.  Try to add some rhymes.

Well done here! This was simply awesome! I mean sure it might not have been your best but as far as emotional content and the purity of how you felt in this piece....well it's apparent that you rocked it with this one. I liked this poem a lot!

It may not have been your best, but it still had a good message.  Thats whats great about poetry.  No matter how bad it seems to you, if theres a message someone can relate to, they love it.  Not saying this is bad, just some general insight.  Thanks for the read.
