    OH JACEY :(...this is very sad..
    Felt like you are lost; drunk by thoughts and
    unable to concentrate..

    I may very well know where this came from ..But amazing "let out". such a beautiful little sad piece; with your feelings crystal clear..

    Unique wording and truly honestly amazing word choice..you managed a good piece..already with few words to touch my heart.

    I'm being dragged
    along pavements,
    skidding, unable to
    regain balance;

    ^^^very sad; very very sad and the only thing
    and message that can be delivered for me..is being lost. That's what pavements and unbalanced reflect..
    Being unable to make a step forward; standing there watching your self along with the different roads( choices) that you are supposed to be take..sooner or later..

    'homelessly" needing some care and love.

    almost as if
    I'm along for the ride,
    risking clattering feet
    and rolling tires
    that could conspire
    to leave me
    raw like roadkill.

    ^^this must be one of the most heartbreaking yet MOST UNIQUE expressions that I have passed by...

    shows big talent jacey with that kind of imagination..I can see you standing there with cars ..tires that can seen as Life's chances..love..people...you care about caring less..

    Amazing wording; just really brought tears to my eyes..i am out of words..but well done..well done..

    5/5
    no bet!!

    I really liked the hidden message within this poem. I found it to be both thought provoking and also a warning. Still you got out a great message with so few words but the only thing I found distasteful was that it had so few words. But aside from that, I really liked the poem. It flowed good and it was well structured. Couldn't exactly keen in on one part that I liked the most put this was a really good piece.

    In all, I really liked how you described everything around you and you made it seem real with some of your descriptions. Great job and keep writing.

    Now this poem I love !

    It's short - direct and very mind catching.

    I'm being dragged
    along pavements,
    ^^
    not sure about the "s" on pavement though. I found it flowed better as just pavement.
    Just my opinion though.

    Just my interpretation but this write gives me the feeling that you are just going through the motions in life. Falling, yet trying to get back up. And every time you think you are almost back on your feet ... WHAM something else comes along and knocks you down.
    And like roadkill - you feel that you are unnoticed or feeling worthless.

    Maybe I am reading way toooooo much into this write. But I feel it has a deeper meaning and leaves the reader much to ponder between the lines.
    I feel sadness dripping from each word.

    Anyway ... love this short little gem with the big shine !
