Re: Hide and Seek (Can You Find Me?)
This: "The little girl that once was me" should probably be "The little girl who once was me". The repetition of "I'm fading faster/Into this disaster" gets a little too ...

Re: Heart Made of Stone
"I can't get no help" should be "I can't get any help". "Till" should be until, or "'til". Apart from that, this is good. I like your rhyming scheme, and ...

Re: soul mate
Some of the lines are a little long and break the flow a little, making it feel slightly less poetic, particularly the third line. "Lovely" isn't very decriptive, what else ...

Re: God (R&R)

Re: The Tempest
This was okay. Your rhyming is a bit off - you start with an AABB scheme, then the second stanza didn't rhyme at all, and the rest seems filled with ...
