    You are very good at writting this type of poetry because all of your emotions are honest, it's a very sad poem and youv'e portrayed yourself very well.

    The flow carried through well into all four stanzas and th rhyming was quite good.
    =] good job, take care

    I sit and watch the days go by
    Hours by hours, sigh after sigh
    Knowing I might never break free
    Help me now, or let me flee?

    *I loved this stanza, it was my favorite. One thing though is you don't need the questionmark after flee, you're not stating a question. I really liked how you wrote this. It was simple but also complex in it's meaning. I also like the use of questions :) those are fun. Another good poem hun. Nik*

    Why will nobody take me serious?
    Can't you see I'm getting delirious?
    Why can't you see beyond my smile?
    I just want to feel like I'm worthwhile
    ^^^^
    Nobody takes people with depression seriously usually until they get help but I like the way you say ".... I'm getting delirious?" because it shows how emotional you are and how stupid they must be not to be able to recognise this. A smile is a smile to most people. Think of the good and then you will feel worthwhile. Powerful beginning as always.

    I sit and watch the days go by
    Hours by hours, sigh after sigh
    Knowing I might never break free
    Help me now, or let me flee?
    ^^^^
    When we feel depressed it feels like the days are so long and it's so unbearable that it hurts. You portray this by "hours and hours". I like how you say "sigh after sighs" because it goes to show how really depressed you're feeling and that everything you do ends in a sigh because it seems so hard for you. "Knowing I might never break free
    Help me now, or let me flee?" < flawless!

    You won't accept I'm living a lie
    Life is nothing, I'd much rather die
    The pain I suffer from everyday
    I'd rather the reaper took me away
    ^^^^
    People won't accpet you're living a lie because I believe they don't think that you are. "Life is nothing, I'd much rather die" < shows how truly hurt you are feeling as you'd rather die than get on with life. Very powerful words with lots of emoition.

    Life is a game, it isn't real
    It isn't for me, it doesn't appeal
    You really think I chose to be like this?
    I love you all, but life I just wouldn't miss
    ^^^^
    Love is the main reason that stops people commiting suicide as it means more to them than ending your own life. Another well written by you, 5/5. Em
