*Can be from the object's view too. =)
You kneel on the floor
tear's falling from your eyes.
You've learnt to hate me
along with all my lies
Then why do you still love me?
Why are you still here?
When I've broken you,
and still not shed a tear
People say it's plain to see,
People say it's clear.
That if you just run away
I would just disappear.
But nothing's was ever simple,
there's nothing clear to see.
You could never run away,
for you were once so dear to me
You love me but you hate me,
said without me you'd be dead.
But I'd be the death of you,
with all the thing's I've said.
You know this won't make any sense
I might misunderstand.
But still you said,
"Please never leave me,
I hope you understand."

I liked it, a lot, however, several things for your notice:
"People say it's plain to see,
People say it's clear.
That if you just run away
I would just disappear."
The just is not only not required, but ruins the weight of your rhyme.
"You love me but you hate me,
said without me you'd be dead.
But I'd be the death of you,
with all the thing's I've said."
A bit unclear, Did the other person said- 'but I'd be the death of you' or is it a statement of the narrator.
also, the metaphors and ideas here are a bit cheesy.
"You know this won't make any sense
I might misunderstand.
But still you said,
"Please never leave me,
I hope you understand."
Using as a rhyme- 'understand' and 'misunderstand' is just lazy.
There are some grammatical errors here and there, and problematic structures as well, but I lack the patience and the grammar to actually point them out and correct them.
Aside from that I liked the poem, it's simple- yet very complex. I can understand the emotions and situation easily, anyone can, but it remains complicated.
You should work a bit on some things, but I think you have the talent, all it needs is a bit of carving.
Waiting for the next poem.
Haha go easy on me! I"m just rookie.
But yeah the next one would much better. Thanks for the comment's by the way. Helps me a lot. The poem just a simple, clumsy piece of work. I'll use your idea's for the next poem. Tell me how you like it. =)
Well, this type of poem really isn't my cup of tea, but I hope this review helps anyway!
