Hide me...

Here's a poem I wrote yesterday. It's SOOO short.

Hide me away
So they can't see the bruises

I guess you win,
'Cause I'm the one that loses.

Close my eyes
So they can't see I'm haunted,

Tell me you love me,
'Cause I've never been wanted.

Well, there it is. I'm not sure who's talking, or if this is even the place for this poem. Oh well, tell me what you think, if you don't mind.

I liked this it a lot! I couldn't find anything wrong the puncuation or grammer.

Tell me you love me,
'Cause I've never been wanted.

Love this line. Great finish!

-Sometimes-

I loved this.

Your flow was absolutely perfect, in my opinion and you used some great imagery and emotion all the way through, so good on you!

Oh, thanks so much, both of you! I'm literally bouncing right now.
*squeals!*

I agree with the others above. This was a really good poem. It flowed well. You used nice imaginary words with feelings to create a picture. I also agree with Sometimesinbetween that the last two lines were the perfect finish.

Great Job.

I like this. I think that you had a good idea going for you, but this can be extended. Your rhyme scheme was very nice, so I think that if you continued, the poem would only grow stronger. Those are just my thoughts though. Otherwise, it sort of has a childish tone, with your choice of words at least. Though I like it like it like that.

You just forgot a few minor punctuations. Besides that, since this is a narrative, I want to see the poetic story develop more. I felt like I was sort of stopped in the middle.

PM me if you have any questions or need help with anything!

Keep it up!

I actually really liked it, I could create a mental image in my head and relate the words to pictures. Bravo =]

Thanks for the crit, all of you. You're all so great.

Even though it was short, I loved it! That was beautiful and... IT RHYMED!

Same here: you forgot a few punctuations but other than that it was wonderful. !KUDOS!

I love this Poem even if it was short it said alot.
you can say alot with very few words.
I found no grammar or punctuation errors.
There was nothing wrong with this poem
I loved It!

I really liked it, like everyone above. But (and here it comes) i agree Riedawriter23. It was short, but it flow well. You could have developed it a little bit longer, but not continued it, because I think the end it was just brilliant. So if you do consider to make it longer, I suggest you keep the ending as the end. LOL In the end, it worked out very well and I absolutely loved it!

That is so insightful and beautiful. I love it so much. You'll have to check out one of my stories sometime. Good luck with the rest of your writing

I enjoyed reading this poem. Normally, I'm fonder of a little more length in a poem, but in this case, i actulay think it fit well.

Close my eyes
So they can't see I'm haunted,

Although, I, and everyone else seems to, love the way you closed the poem, my favorite stanza is your third. I just think that it paints a beautiful picture in the eyes of your reader.
I couldn't find any punctuation errors, though the word choice could be beefed up a tad, astonishingly, it befits this poem quite well.

Over all, I really like you writing style and flow. It's pretty.
