I am very impressed! Well done with your imagery and description! I can feel your words.
Keep writing,

My goodness... I am impressed. You're length doesn't match my Assassin, but it is still very engaging for how long it is. I really only skimmed it, but I am still very impressed on the imagery, the fantastic wording you use. I really liked this stanza:
Something is just very... awesome... about how you worded it. Well writ, Vyper. And don't worry, free verse and abstract are just as good as structured poetry. It's easier, too...
Great poem you got here, I like it.. you shouldnt worry too much about the rythym of your poem, your emotions and inspiration and feelings you write down to share all the other writers like ourselves. I think your poem is perfect this way.
I liked this, because insanity and I are very well acquainted. It is perfectly okay that it doesn't rhyme. Sometimes, when you force something to rhyme that doesn't want to rhyme, it comes out strained and weird-sounding. This read very smoothly. I'm not sure what I can fix, so this is an encouraging review. Everyone needs some of those!
Keep writing!
Well, first off, welcome to YWS!
I really liked this poem, and freeverse is fine, it doesn't make it any less of a poem/less epic ^_^
(also, teardrop suggested google-ing, however, I have a little friend called rhymeZone, just, well, um google it and you'll find it! It has rhymes AND near-rhymes, as well as definitions for those words you've never heard of, and synonyms if the word you chose hasn't got the right rhyme.
Now the critique-y part:
[quote="Vyper"]
on an endless eternity.
The laughter in my ears,
screaming so loud,
That I can’t stand it anymore
of it.well, I won't do EVERY line, but unless you've just put a '.' or '?' or '!' you don't need a capital letter.
Also, where are your commas? I can't be bothered to do 'em red, but I'll put them in
The worry and the stress,
The hate and confusion are,
Swirling through my mind in violence.
Nothing is here for me.
I don’t want to stay,
But I do not wish to leave.
My dreams no longer comfort me,
No light is left within me.
AsI struggle with the fight,Not for my body,
Not of the heart,
But of my mind so dear.
Are you struggling 'with' a fight, of 'for' a fight? You need to choose one
My thoughts are running away,
Nothing seems to be clear.
AsI struggle with what I see,andthe voices that I hear.
So I stand here looking into the face of eternity,
On the edge of insanity,
Hoping and praying for help that will never come
s,Until I just wish to give in.
Even as the remains of my sanity yell
s; I begin to fall.The edge,
The line,
No longer clear but blurred,
Until I can’t see myself anymore.
Apart from that, it was great
Keep up the writing!

Nice!
This looks good, but it's really long. Maybe I'm ADD, I don't know, but I sort of got a little bored around the fifth stanza. From what I did read, though, this looks really good! Keep up the nice work, and welcome to YWS!
I liked this a lot! I think you definatly have a talent for writing lyrics. I thought the song could have had more flow to it, sometimes you can get that by rhyming. A lot of the times when I'm writing poems or lyrics I google "words that rhyme with ____" or whatever word I need something to rhyme with. Sometimes some of the words make sense, sometimes they don't but a lot of the words I find gives me ideas. ^_^
This was my favorite, I liked how it tied up the Edge Of Insanity part and it was a nice way to end this. ^_^
Anyway, nice job overall!

This is good [: But I think you should try and make it rhyme just a little bit more, so it flows better. I liked the descriptive words and how the feelings were noticeable. Keep wriitng
Over all I liked it, but it needs work, especially in the punctuation department
I like it!
its very meaningful and dont worry when I write poetry I suck at rhyming too XD
