 Esther Jade 2008-03-08 . chapter 1Overall, I like this - it's crisp and clear and conveys a number of complex emotions in a succinct way. Normally, I find the use of bold and italics an annoying thing to use in poetry but I think you pulled it off.
Again, I think punctuation would be good for this poem. I also thought the "Yeah" at the beginning of the fifth line felt a bit strange. It felt like it almost but didn't quite fit the rhythm.

--
there are those who need your help, but are afraid to admit it.
there are those who need your help, and help you in return.
and then there's those who take your help and leave you more broken than before.
i like this, and the end. |
 kelsi bones 2008-02-19 . chapter 1wow. i can relate to this. it's sad that the only people we can tell how we feel, we'll never meet though. hopefully you'll find someone who you can lean on.

i'm right there with you.
