Are you mad?

I also am.

Will you hate?

Will you curse?

So will i.

Are you hurt?

Oh!You are not?

I also ain't.

You want to see me?

You don't?

I also never want.

You'll kill me?

You scare me!

Should I run?

Oh!I wait and watch?

You'll buy a gun?

Oh!An axe?

You'll hire thugs?

Wait a minute:

Do you have cash?

I guess not.

Ain't I right?

Why are you sitting?

Oh!I'm loud?

What if they hear?

You think I care?

I calm down?

You started this!

I listen a bit?

No!You listen first!

You love me?

You think I believe that?

Is that how you say sorry?

How do you take me?

You hurt me,

You curse me,

You abuse me,

You run away,

And that's all you say?

I treat you like a queen,

You say thanks by cursing.

Am I that cheap?

Am I that stupid?

I give you my heart

You give me your hate

Shouldn't I get bored?

Shouldn't I be tired?

Shouldn't I just go?

Shouldn't I move on?

You're know sorry?

Isn't it too late?

We can start again?

You will change?

You never did

You never will

Oh no. I'm sorry.

I never meant to say that.

Stop crying.

Come, lean on me.

Of course I believe you.

I love you too,

Never doubt that.

Come honey,

Lets go home.

Hello there, here for a review.

Oh man, the end was never expected as I read through the beginning. And yet, it was inevitable, and I should have seen it coming, since it usually always ends this way with love... Alright now, as for the poem. It is good, it is short, it is efficient. I like it. Good job on this. However, there are some things that I think that you could improve.

First of all, the verses in italics. I understand why you do that, but what I don't understand is why you stopped doing them at some point in your poem! You should keep using them, because they create a good effect on the reader.

As for the grammar and spelling mistakes:

First, "I" is always capitalized when you are talking about yourself.

Oh!You are not?
There is always a space after any punctuation sign.

I also ain't.
"ain't" is very informal and is usually used for verbal language. I would recommend not using it in the poem, even though your poem may be part of a dialogue.

Oh!I wait and watch?
This is not proper English. Maybe write: I should wait and watch?

You're know sorry?
Did you mean now or not?

Those are all the mistakes I found. Then there is this, which I find is a very good tipping point to your poem:
Oh no. I'm sorry.
From there on out, the poem hooked me even more. And it was a good poem, so congratulations.

Keep on writing!

Whee! :D Hey hey! Welcome to the site! *waves awkwardly*

I'd rather drop a short review for your poetry.

First off, it was crazy! It was way too much fun to read! I read this thrice! Out loud! It made me giggle! :D Well, if you find it strange like, "Oh you dumbo! You cannot like it this much! You must be lying" let me tell you, I loved it because I do THIS. Talking like that, without waiting for answers, talking to myself. That's regular for me. That's why it's relatable.
I mean, wait! O.O Even though it's like an argument but readers can only see one speaker and that makes it look like the speaker's talking to himself alone. If you know what I mean. :3
So, I like the italicising thing you did in the first few lines but then what! o.O Did you forget about those or just found that time-consuming? You could continue that. There were few spacing issues, like places where there's a space needed, kindly fix those. Probably a quick revision? :) I love the ending. It's utterly sweet! ^^

Have a Pleasant Day!~
Nire.

I am glad you liked it. Well i couldn't think of a better title so the first one that came to my mind is the one I chose. The italics...well i'll work on them. Thanks for the advice

Hi
It is so fast-paced. O.o
I like it in a way. Not gonna leave a review though...

anarki replied · Dec 14, 2015

Yes. Now that i look at it, the conflict has been solved very fast. But anyway, i don't want to make it longer so i won't edit it.

fukase replied · Dec 14, 2015

NO! That is not what I meant.
I just want to say it flows too fast...but that isn't wrong and related to how the conflict has been solved very fast...
> By the way, after looking at the title again, this isn't an argument. This is a quarrel.
