Question: Poem, criticism wanted!?
Still rough but i feel pretty good about it, just in the mood for some criticism!.


Dance with me, ignore the pain


To dark tonight to write my words,
But in my mind they’re all I see!.
Broken glass lies at our feet;
Dance with me, ignore the pain!.

Water drains from every pore as
I try to kill my self with each step!.
Knees and ankles give away;
They share a bullet and burn away!.

A bottle besides me with nothing to drink,
Too much inside to clearly think!.
My mind is trapped, my soul let free!.
I cut my wrists but cannot bleed!.
I want to tell you more,
But your smell won't leave my arm!.
I wish it would suffocate me!.

Burn a hole in me, put out the fire!.
Singe my hand with flames beautiful touch!.
Smoke mixes with air to cloud my sight!.
I choke out razors that tear my throat,
The air escaping each fading gasp!.
A knock on the door brings such fear!.
Being fooled by footsteps on the ceiling!.
A knock with you behind locked door;
Nothing but a steady rap
Of footsteps that I know aren’t real!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think its very beautiful and very great but also very sad, but its hard to write happy poems!. sadness is easy to write about because its such a strong emotion, right!? I think its beautifully written and i love it!. :)
my favourite part "Water drains from every pore as
