Consumed in my thoughts.
Just scattered and thrown
not quite sure of myself
and my strengths.
I'm not sure how much I can endure.
But I know I am strong.
Consumed.
I can feel that I'm not the person I once was.
But I shall persist and be determined to be myself.
"I am the darkness that dwells inside of my heart."

Hi there. A short and simple poem:) Short poems like this makes it easy for readers to read it. :D
However, I feel there are some mistakes.

**I like how the word was fit into the poem here.

Besides that, I feel that the ending is .. Too sudden..? As in, maybe a better ending would have made the poem end smoothly. Yeah..

*Hmm, maybe you could have put in commas? To make the sentence a complete one? Yup.
Just some suggestions for you. :D

Overall, good attempt on this one!

Cheers,

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits, and their entrances
And one man in his life plays many parts.

Nice poem. There are some grammar mistakes. I won't point them out thoguh, since DrammaMamma has already done so. It's true, and I hope that you continue to write, If you have any questions PM me. The best of luck!

This seems good for the beginning of something. Try adding more detail to make it longer: what brought you to that point, your own thoughts at the time ect. ect.

Consumed is a wonderful poem I like how it doesnt scream me, me, me rather you say it without saying it. Now I'm sure theres a word for that lol I have short term memory lol lets go with that ;) I have to say overall these are my two favorite lines

"I can feel that I'm not the person I once was.

But I shall persist and be determined to be myself."

Great job keep it up!
