There is a ghost on my back following me watching my every move forceing me to rember my wors memories.



Lights on

They walk in

She falls to her knees

She says she is sorry

The confusion builds up

And changes into frustration

Behind the stage in the darkness

I creep around untill I here voices

I hear "he dumped me coltons going to be mad if he finds out"

I run into an enclosed room and a girl comes up

I didn't know, you could have asked for my help

Then comes liz tears from her eyes

Im sorry which I reply with "we will talk later"

I rush past her and join the rest of the cast

Do I blame myself? I don't know so I continue the play

We constantly get in fights I blame my self more and more

Untill all the hatered builds up and a ghost forms on my back

It watches me it sees me untill I had enough

I take the gun say my prayers and pull the trigger

It might be weakness and it shows im certainly not bulletproof.

Okay, the poem was good, it just didn't flow well.

I think you should break some of the lines up. They're all really uneven.

Like,

Quote:
It watches me it sees me untill I had enough


That could be "It watches me/it sees me until I had enough."

There are a few typos and grammatical errors, too.

But overall, this is a good piece. Nice job.

Hoonestly what's there to say? I was there when it happened....
:feels somewhat mortified at my prior actions:
I ... liked the poem, and you heard me crying.

Okay...but yeah, you might want to break some lines up. It was painful for me to read, the way it was set up. You also might want to check over the grammar, it helps a lot.

Definitely need to break some lines up, add punctuation, check spelling, etc. Your closing line was quite good, and showed a lot of potential.

I take the gun
Say my prayers
And I pull the trigger

It might be selfish weakness
But it shows I'm certainly not bulletproof.

Something like that, but tweak it a bit, there's got to be a better way to say it. But good job.
