    Helloooooo.

    Gosh I know the feeling of this poem.
    The fact I could relate made it really enjoyable to read.
    Along with the flow which I enjoyed.
    You use simple vocab but still paint the picture.
    My favourite stanza was

    "It's funny how I trust them,
    Even when things go wrong.
    And I just reassure myself,
    "Don't worry, you belong"

    It really hit home. Well done =)

    "It's funny how one email,
    Can destroy something so big.
    Can break something that seemed so strong,
    Like a small, pathetic twig."

    In that stanza I thought it would flow better if it was "Can break something ONCE so strong" It shortenenened the line. Just an opinion.
    It was perfect the way it is, and it prolly ruined the idea of seeming lol.
    But maybe try to shorten it some how.
    Haha
    Anyhoooo,
    Well dooone =]

    I absolutely adore the ending of this poem...so much depth and emotion behind the words and it has great impact.
    I liked how you repeated it's funny, I thought that helped get your point across well.
    The flow was good throughout, and again that ending..I just love it!

    Wow! the ending was completely unexpected i loved it... the flow was off in a few places but the word choice and rhymes were great... you express youself nicely and do well by not falling into cliche's

    by the way i LOVE this part of your poem "With every f u c k i n g step I take.
    I slowly crumble into stone."

    Amazing.

    "But I was just a petty flower,
    At which they laughed and broke the stem."
    ^ That couplet was a really good metaphor, that I have quite frankly never seen anywhere else. Wonderful.

    "Hilarious, that's what it is,
    It's just what I deserve.
    And I bet they'll still be laughing,
    When my razor hits a nerve. "

    ^ Oh gosh. That stanza hit me VERY HARD..... terribly sad to read hun..... Though fantastic all the same.

    Overall, purely superb! Keep it up! 5/5

    Wow, amazing and no doubt straight from your heart. I loved it through and through, and you painted an excellent picture of harship emotions. The flow was PERFECT. The rhyming was excellent. The poem Idea was Unique.

    "Or how 'bout just two separate people?"
    Who cares if this will ever mend?
    ^^^I didn't understand what you meant here at all....

    An amazing write, I love your poetry.

    That was really really dark, but i loved it. I was enchated by the words, and couldn't have stopped reading it to save my own life. so far this poem is one of the best ones I have read today. all yours are exceptional. This one is no diffrent. the flow again was absoulty perfect, the word choice was brilantly placed, and the emtions were effin powerful. Great job. I hope you keep writting so i can keep reading, I would be at a loss if i couldn't read your written words. It might very well become my newest addiction. lol

    Like a small, pathetic twig.
    That line seemed forced, dear.

    Second line?
    Relatable :]

    But all my dumb idea did[[,]]
    That doesn't need a comma in there.

    Umm...
    Actually, you have a lot of commas that don't belong.

    And then it's funny how again,
    They say I'm fine without their crew.
    But what they really mean to say,
    Is that "We're just fine without you."

    Love that line.

    That everyday I cry.
    That's a bit overdramatic.

    When my razor hits a nerve.
    I don't like that.
    Dear, I know that poems are about expressing ones feelings.
    But you shouldn't cut or hurt yourself.
    It's not really the way.
    I don't like your ending of this poem.
    It's a bit... scary in my eyes.

    All in all.
    Best poem I've read other than the other one.
    Lol.
    Sorry I'm not being so specific.
    I forgot to title.
    5/5?
