I usually don't like romantic/breakup/ sappy poems but I loved this one! There were some spots that rhymed and many metaphors. I love the way you have a good/happy/positive thing and bad/sad/negative thing in the beginning, where you have two lines paired together. They compare and contrast, yet fit together "like milk and cookies". In all, I think all that I have to say is in the paragraph where it's talking about dreams and nightmares coming true it would sound better as "but on the pessimistic flip side nightmares do too." instead of "but on the pessimistic flip side, nightmares and come true too." Also, although I get that you formatted it the way you did because it works and sounds better that way, the fact that there are the spots with two sentences bunched together at the beginning and then the single lines afterwords is somewhat unpleasant on the eyes, and makes the poem sort of uneven. Still, all in all, I loved it! I'm even going to pick it, I think!

This poem is magnificent. Each line carried so much depth, meaning, and sorrow; it was emotional to read. The secret battles that we hold inside ourselves is a very interesting and amazing topic to write about. I could really take this poem personally. My favorite line was "I help them escape their demons, while I am maimed by their claws." Wow. That fits so perfectly in my life, and it flows effortlessly with the poem. On writing levels: I loved the way you wrote this. The bold accents were a nice add. So overall, painfully stunning job, and I loved it. It would be a crime not to pick this.

I really like this, it's thoughtful and inspiring. I really like the way you set it all up with one statement bolded and the next not, it makes it even more impactful. well done!

I completely am in awe of this poem, the writing, imagery; it's all very dark, but also very positive. I couldn't be more inspired by this poem. Each line held something on its own. GREAT JOB!

Wow...this is great. It holds so much emotion. Great job! Love the second line. "Lost in my darkness again, same debts to pay..."
And for some reason this reminds oddly of a Bible verse or hymn.

This is a great little poem. I, especially liked the first two lines and how they contradicted each other in such a lovely manner and in the seventh line I love the word choice. Callous and malice is fun to say together. And with the talk of cookies and pie, I am now hungry. Thanks. :P

Great word choice, great topic, it's touching, it's beautiful, it's something we can all relate to. the only critique i can give is to work on your flow. The individual sentences flowed, but not the poem as a whole. Other than that, it's amazing. It's deep and insightful, and really, there's not too much I can say that hasn't already been said. great job. (: It's very real.
