Today I dwelled in misery
Reminising on some memories
how everyone I loved turned their backs on me
I am my only Family
This circle of betrayel really needs to end
I am exhausted and
I cannot pretend
They can all go their ways
I will not make amends
The paper and pen are my only friends
It hurts me to think I was the Stupid one
They all played their games
They all had their fun
They are the reasons for the sad songs I have sung
my voice is my only companion
SO im all alone now
its just me
I have no home now
I've become a gypsy
I can try but i know I'll never be free
I am my only enemy

Woah!  that poem is so deep but it rocks!  I think it would make a great song too.  But anyways, keep up the great work!

Yikes! I really get into what your saying, that held me spellbound while I read it…

Have you ever thought of stanzas though?
I believe it helps the reader keep their place as they read, and also it helps keep things a little separate… makes it so you don’t sound like your jumping around as much.

Good job though!
One of my favorite lines you have written is, “I am my only Family”, I don’t know why, that just really stands out to me…

Keep up the great writing, I look forward to more!

Thanks for the pleasure of being able to read your poem
