Heya brenzie! Cat here to review your poem. I'll start by going through the poem and giving my thoughts as I read, so let's get going.
First four lines give a nice clear description of what you are trying to get across. They read simply and hold no hidden meaning, which can be good or bad, depending on which way you look at it. It clearly depicts a lost someone whom the narrator is close to and remembers vividly, but isn't actually there at the moment.
Next five lines make me think that it's all just a voice inside their head? Like are they going crazy or something? Is it themselves? It's open ended, which kinds works in this situation.
Next for are a little weak in expanding the previous thoughts, but I can see that it is pretty much the narrator just being inside their own head.
Next five are interesting with the apple analogy. I don't thing you need to add 'cyanide' just because it feels like you are trying to make sure people will get your analogy.
Next three turn this into a depression kind of thing. It's a lot more serious than it was at first, which I'm not sure feels consistent.
Last part is a little confusing? Like the voice isn't a friend but they are? It doesn't feel explained enough.
I do kinda think there should be a few stanza breaks instead of one long poem.Overall though, it has nice flow and meaning, and I really enjoyed it.
Keep writing! =^-^=
