Question:well first of all, this didn't start as a poem, so its a little choppy. the first stanza was just a quote i came up with. i wanted to add more to it, so i did, and its kind of poem like...

Life Before You*

Before I met you,
There was an unseen knife in my chest,
But then you pulled it out and
Shook my hand

So if you take that knife
And stab me over and over
I will live.
I lived with a knife
In my chest before.
I can do it again.
It won't hurt me like you think.
But I will forever wonder
Why?

*i also HATE this title, but its all i got for now

1. I don't get it
2. it was bad
sorry if you don't like my critique, but you asked for an opinion, so I gave you one. work on it and you can get better though :D

erm i dont understand what the poem means but maybe its just me =/

it's really good girl...I'd change the name to killing me again or killing me all over or I can only die once...very good though...star
