Question: Constructive Criticism!?
what do you think of my poem!? constructive criticism plz im only 14

You add more black to this white
The darkness overpowering the light
I watch my surroundings turn from white to gray
Its starting to become a sad cliche
Then the title of gray is rejected
For no trace of white can be detected
But here in darkness i am content
Beacuse unnoticibly time is spent

So here in darkness i lye
Waiting for my heart to die
I'm blind from reality and pain
As long as this numbness i obtain
But I know that the next time i see you tears will flow with ease
And painful flashbacks will come as they please
'Cause the truth unspoken, is that my heart is broken
And the darkness soon you will fight, holding the blade of lightWww@QuestionHome@Com

critiquing poetry really needs to be done face to face so you can understand the emotions of the reader's response!.
The shift in focus of the prose is confusing!. !st person, 2nd person, 3rd person I can't be sure!.
You start with "you" than use "I" until the very end and focus back to "you"!. The line ending rhymes are cute but for something meant to be as powerful as this you really didn't need them!. There is great imagery which is easily identified with by the reader!. Keep on!Www@QuestionHome@Com
