Hey there! Time for my review;
Picky things;
Okay so firstly, I didn't like the structure much, 'cause it all just runs into one big block and that makes it really hard for there to be any kind of flow going on. When you have created a flow, the reader tends to be able to read the piece easier and also enjoy it more.
You also need to do things about your spelling, grammar and punctuation, because your work would then look a lot more professional. Snoink has pointed out the typo "waist" so remember to change it. Also, capitalize your "I"'s and pretty much capitalize some of the beginning letters of each line, as I feel that the lack of this does not fit right into the poem.
You have a few lines that don't really make sense, such as; "They dont want me". This should be changed to something else, like "You" instead of "They" as it would make more sense and you're not then jumping from person to person.
Try to use a varied amount of punctuation, just to create the right pauses and such through the poem. You've barely used punctatuion through this, and I think just a few commas, periods and hyphens here and there would brighten it up.
Praise for;
Your idea is excellent. You put across a well used idea into something that had your own unique twist to it and that made it more enjoyable to read. Your rhythm, in most places, coupled along with the rhymes that you made, worked well with the idea of the poem and I think you pretty much scored top marks in that area.
My favourite section must've been;
"we had a plan
we had a life
but all you brought
was pain and strife"
In this, you fitted the right amount of syllables into each line and the rhyming was really good! The flow that you created was somewhat simple, but that never hurt anyone.
Hope this helps you in your editing.
Happy writing!
