This is so good that I am lost for words!

Kasie, nice to see you back I thought the new site had put you off as I hadn't seen you around in some days then again, I know I was unable to fathom out how to get on then when I did it wouldn't let me. Anyway... Not only have you written a sonnet and I think a great one at that, you have written an acrostic too which I applaud you on because I know sonnets and acrostics aren't easy if done well, like here.

1/ What an eye opening first part. I feel it gets straight into the nitty gritty that yes, you have broken down and though this may be true, It's truer still that you are positive and though broken and drowning in your own darkness you try to find your way again which will make you stronger each day, one step at a time. People around us may look straight through our fake smile and lying eyes but the people that truly care about and love us will know something isn't right.

2/ Kasie, I love this because (and it's only my opinion) you are saying to hell with all these venomous words you have been told as they aren't true and though they beat you down the first time maybe years ago and no doubt often you will no longer let them rule your life and rightly so. Nobody should rule our life's apart from us.

Great write,
Em

Beautiful poem.
