Her words burn like fire,
the hatred she has ommited
sticks as glue
to my memory bank of
hurting words
I delve into the creaking
shelves of haunting dialogues
and review each
spiteful remark
find the latest insult

nice poem try to work harder on it
You seem to write poety the way I do in some sense. At least this piece. you speak from the way you feel. though you make a lot better poem than me.
I think the third and fourth stanzas should be revised, or rewritten, they seem a bit immature and annoying,but overall I like the narration, and I very much enjoyed reading the first two stanzas;they sort of sucked me in I guess. =)happy reading(=
Hmmm...
At the moment, it's still a little abstract, so you have these bitter feelings, but they have nothing to hook onto. I would love to see the antagonist come into the poem more.
I think this poem might be better as a narrative poem. That is, you're describing a story instead of feelings.
For instance, what if the narrator (forgive me if the narrator is you... I can never be too sure about these things!) belittles this woman? What does she look like? What does she act like? By giving us a better picture of who the antagonist of the poem is, you'll help give us a picture of who the narrator is and help us identify with her more.
Hope that helps!
