God

In poems

When someone asks how I am I lie.
I say that I'm okay or I'm good,
but the truth is most of the time I'm not.
No one knows that deep inside I hate myself.
I hate myself from the bottom of my darkened heart.
I'm fat, I'm out of shape, I'm a loser.
I hate the way I look,
I always screw things up one way of another,
and I feel alone and confused.
People say there is a god,
If there is god please help me, let me know I'm not alone,
give me a sign that I am wanted!
I play it off as I don't care if I'm wanted of not,
Truth is these last two years will kill me!
I'm begging you! PLEASE!
If you exist PLEASE GIVE ME SOMETHING!
I don't have a clue on what to do, 
I'm lost,
I'm broken,
I'm even fallen from grace.
I CAN NOT TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!
I've spent all this time bottling up what I've should have said,
I'm on the edge of breaking down, 
so please help me.

Hi I willNOTbow. <-- I like your name.

I am GeeLyria and I will be reviewing for you today.

I like the reason why this poem was written, because even though there's a hater bellow this review, others can also relate to it. This poem was written before the phase of metamorphosis, and I like the sincerity in it. It made me really sad, I don't like it when people feel like they don't have anything but have the potential to write.

In all honesty, I don't have much to say about this piece. Except that it could use some stanzas for the reader to breathe. A long piece with no spaces is like a skycrapper without windows, and that can make people lazy. And we don't want that! Because you want to be heard! :) Another thing I want to point out is the line that is written in caps; I'd suggest you to write it like a normal sentence, and then add the exclamation mark (because that is what they are for - to scream in paper). Another thing that confused me really bad was the first sentence because it lacks a comma.

When someone asks how I am, I lie.

There should be a comma after "am".

And that's pretty much all I've got to say. Keep writing!
