How many people would it affect?

Would anyone notice?

Probably not....

I've pretty much failed my family and friends...

I couldn't talk someone out of suicide....

There goes....

Another beautiful soul...

And its all my fault.

I failed to talk them out of it....

and now their death....

is on me....

Can I really live like this?

No.....

I don't know... 

Maybe....

Hey there, XxPheonixKittenxX.
you wouldn't believe how long it took me to write your name correctly >>

Alright, the first thing I'm going to cover here is the title.

Just another 'My thoughts" again

First thing, it's partially capitalized, partially not capitalized. I think that maybe all of the title can be capitalized? Typically, "another" and "again" are.
Second, there's an apostrophe and a quotation mark around "My Thoughts". This is most likely a typo, but maybe changing that apostrophe to a quotation mark would be better.
Third, I agree with ElizabethLovelace when it comes to the title. It isn't long, but maybe removing "another" would be good. I think the title can even simply be "My Thoughts" and just leave it at that.
As for the punctuation/ellipses, it's kind of all over the place.

^these are three very different styles of punctuation. Maybe the periods and the question marks mixed together would be okay, but if you mix in ellipses, it's either one or the other. Aside from questions, you used ellipses and then added in that period. It's inconsistent.
Personally, I'd rather not really touch or cover the emotion in the poem, as I don't relate so much to this and would hate to misinterpret something. This is all I really have to say for this review. Hope this helps!

Hey there XxPheonixKittenxX. It's just lizzy dropping by real quick, so without a further ado, let the reviewing begin.

Okay before I go anywhere with this review, allow me a line or two to talk about ellipsis. I don't like to use them myself because they are frankly so easy to mess up with. I can see what you were trying to do here but it's just not working. The repetition of extended after extended thought starts to get on the reader's nerves after a couple of lines. You may want to try out an alternative form of punctuation because currently the poem is really hard to get through.

I haven't done in title analysis comments for a long time but I do feel the need to today.

1. Either go with apostrophes or quotation marks in the title or really in anything else. The two mixed together is most likely a typo. If it was on purpose, I would recommend getting rid of it immediately because it is just another thing that drives readers away.
2. The title isn't necessarily long, just some parts of it could be stated better. It would look much neater and have the same meaning if you shortened it to something like the example in the quote below.
Just "My Thoughts" Again

To me this just gives off a better air than a mixture of caps, rambling words, and messed up punctuation.

Overall I didn't like the poem because it just seemed that no emotion came from it. There was nothing that really made me want to pay full attention to the piece. It just blends in with lots of other dramatic poetry pieces about life that I've read. I mean at some point any idea that has every been used in poetry, gets re-used. And this point specifically has been used really often and very rarely I've seen it executed well. It's just that people have these hardships every day, so everyone can else to them but that doesn't make them anymore interesting.

I actually don't have that much more to add to this review. Hopefully one of these few comments helps in some way. Hope you are doing okay if this is the current state of your emotions.
Have a nice day. <3

I hope this just expression of emotion through your work, and that it helps you feel better when you do. If its not, well there are those of us who understand what its like to live through these things, so if you ever need to talk hit me up. Its a beautiful piece by the way.

thanks, and yeah, it helps me clear my mind. I've been trying to finish my school work, but with my mind rambling on, it's not much help, so I tend to write it out. I am suicidal though....



sometimes i'm like "I should say something quotable to make it into the quote gen" but then I feel bad because quote gen quotes are very spontaneous
