Oh cruelest irony.
Thou hast rapèd my heart
Stripped me of my values
And left me drowning in a sea of despair.

What have I done to upset thee?
Nothing have I ever said.
No crime have I ever committed
That would lead you to such horrific action.

And yet here I am
Stripped bare of all morals
Gasping for air, my last breath
And sinking. Sinking. Forever sinking.

This poem is awesome! I like the title. It fits. I didn't see any grammatical errors or anything. So, yeah. I didn't have any personal issues with it. Overall, it was a great poem to read. It gave me this sense of depression as I read it. I like reading things that bring out emotion in me. Nice! Keep it up!

I liked this piece, and I have to say I loved how you incoporated Ye Olde English into the poem. I love those old Shakesperian words.
Your poem is actually pretty well structured and your words seemed to flow very easily throughout the poem.

I definitely think your first stanza was my favorite. Very descriptive and you picked really good words to use!

Apple of my soul,
Eats me whole,
Take one bite,
No delight,
Rotting hole.
