Humans with your mental state disgust me
You aren’t human
You're a filthy disgusting freak
Doing such a heinous crime
Ruins the survivor’s life
I am not a victim
I am not weak
I are strong
I beat that mental battle every day
I are survivors
Did you ever think of what you are destroying
You destroyed me
Every night
Years later
I still can’t move past
I still have the night terrors
You ruined me
My self picture
My self worth
You are sick
You are wicked
Your sinister actions broke me
But I will not let my past plan for my future
Everytime those atrocious memories come back
I sink
To the bottom of the sea
I tremble
Tremble at the flashbacks
But I am not weak
I’m a survivor
I build myself up every time
Did you ever think what you were doing was evil
I doubt it
A villain like you doesn't feel remorse.

Hey there! Plume here, with a review!
I enjoyed reading this poem! I thought your last line was especially killer. I took it to mean that this poem is about someone who probably hurt the speaker in some way in the past. The poem takes on both an inspiring and somewhat of a vengeful tone, too. It definitely gives off the vibe of a phoenix emerging from the ashes, or the narrator emerging from their own ruins caused by someone else to grow to become better. I liked the message a lot, and I think your strong vocabulary especially when describing the object of the poem worked really nicely to support that message.
One thing I did wonder about was whether this poem could benefit from stanzas. Right now, it reads as one long thing, which isn't necessarily bad, but I feel like it would be interesting to see how stanzas change the way you read the poem. If I were putting in stanzas, I'd probably do it something like this:
I feel like those are where the topics most obviously shift, and I feel like it could improve the flow of the poem by allowing readers to have a bit of a breather in between thoughts, you know?
Specifics
You've got a bit of subject/verb disagreement here; did you mean to say "we are strong/survivors" or "I am strong/a survivor?" Personally, I'd suggest going with "I," since you've already built up that repetition.
Overall: nice work! I think this poem was pretty well executed, and I hope to read more of your work in the future! Until next time!!
Thank yo for your review. Ill go back into it and check out the part you brought to my attention.

Hello. It was lovely to read your poem. I am Kai and I am here to review it. I very much like the message of your poem. It is strong and relatable and has a sort of resilience to it that I find very inspiring.
I do question why you have I are stated several times that is not grammatically correct is that for a reason if so what is the reason for I fail to see how it adds much but I am willing to have my perspective changed.
The reason i am is stated so many times is because it is a message to myself not to give up
