    A good poem, a few touch ups in some parts, but overall very well done.

    Try not to use so many periods at the end of each line. Though giving a sense of pause and waiting, overusage of such is more bothersome than poetic. Comma's should be used for the sense of pause and waiting.
    (example)
    Yours:
    The weaknesses and flaws I try so hard to hide..
    Are all apart of the real me I keep hidden inside..
    update of yours:
    The weaknesses and flaws, I try so hard to hide
    Are all apart of the real me, I keep hidden inside.

    And
    But the pain is very intense and all to deep...
    should be changed to
    But the pain is very intense and all *too* deep
    And
    I year to belong...to be.."One of the crowd"..
    should be changed to
    I *yearn* to belong, to be"One of the crowd"

    Other than that, the emotion and vocab were superb. Keep writing. ^_^x

    Amazing, this was so wonderful. I loved the way you made things ryhme. The flow was a little off but it was wonderfull in all. I loved the phrase "Wanting so very much to just be accepted...
    Yet fearing the possibilities of being rejected."
    That caught my eye in a single glance. Great job!

    I actually liked this quite a bit.
    I guess it's because most people at some point will be able to relate to it; I like to read poems I can relate to.
    The rhyme in this was actually ok... "illusion" and "confusion" was a good one!
    On the first line of the third stanza, I think you meant "...a tear seen..."
    And on the fourth line of the third stanza, it should be "...all too deep...."
    But a good write, quite deep and intense.
    Thanks for sharing.

    It may seem as if I am carefree and strong...
    Going through life as if nothing is wrong..
    But none has ever seen the real me..
    They only know what I let them believe and see.

    this was my favorite part although all of it was well written i can relate to this poem alot i like how you rimed words like illusion and
    confusion..i loved how you used so much emotion through out the poem..5/5

    I effing love this part
    Most often my smiles are real and sincere..
    Other times they help hide my secret fears..
    I've carefully created a clever mask of illusion..
    I wear it now to hide my confusion.
    That's also how I feel.
    UGH!
    Omgzzzz.
    This is so great.
    I thought I was weird for feeling that.
    Lol.

    Wow! i can relate so easily to this peice, especially the first stanza.
    This is really well written, and the rhyming is really good, but a tad cliche in 1 or 2 places!
    still, definatly a 5/5 from me!

    Wow only found two things off.
    "to" should be "too"
    And the stanzas could be shortend to two lines, but the poem was awsome! i loved it!
