Question:i wrote it about my old bf

Falling

maybe theres something
maybe not
but i just can't seem
to find another thought

people tried to worn me
I told them not to fear
but i'm finding
that i am way to far away from here

And I'm falling
falling off my cloud
I don't know where i'll land
or if i'll even hit the ground

why is it that
i only think of you
you're all i see
you're always in my dreams

I feel like
i'm gonna go insane
i'm gonna lose control
i'm gonna drive right off the road

and i'm falling
falling off my cloud
i don't know where i'll land
or if i'll even hit the ground

i'm falling fast for you
i just can't stop
i can't slow down
until i hit ground

It sounds much more like a song than a poem,
the 'and I'm falling,
falling off my cloud
etc.
this could be the chorus.
Have you a friend who plays guitar? It would be great with that.

worn should be spelled warn - your worn means like when something is old and worn.

I do not think that it flows very well at all....I would revise it/

Wow... you sound so sad. If you need a shoulder to cry on, I'm here for you. I'm sure everything will become better soon. Don't give up hope.

It's warn not worn. You rhyme some words and not others. You need to be consistent with your structure. Your meter is off. You need punctuation badly. BUT, you have some good ideas going. Now work with it. Polish it up a little and it will be a good poem.
