you told me i was beautiful,
as i lay on the floor beneath
you. feeling lost and hated now
waiting for redemption to seethe
to the surface in your eyes. how...
i sat at your fake pedestal,
again, looking for reflection
of some hope i'd see through the lie
and restore your false perfection.
lost in the haze of love, i'd try
to see the truth in pitiful
glimpses of a past and a sin
my heart did not deserve at all.
you looked into me, a woman
blinded by you, watching the fall.
i waited for you to fulfill
the part of my soul alone in
that darkness sometimes left, remorse.
taken hands away i hasten
to grasp at last your unseen force
upon my heart. still dutiful
to the last, i stood and let fate
seal itself. i walked away by
your order. waiting for a hate
to steal the love that will not die.

+1 - like the form, but the wording was kind of dry

Not keen on the rhythm of this. But an ok effort.

I didn't appreciate this so much the first time I read it, but when I removed the breaks and just read it formlessly, I liked it better. Your breaks were interesting, but the attempt to rhyme seems to have made it more labored. Good content, though. You're good with words.

Good job keeping the rhyme and meter, but the content is a little cliched and it could use some imagery. I think this would actually be better if you didn't worry about rhyming and instead concentrated on creating clear images. I say this because you ended a few lines with weak words, and where you break the line is important. For instance you ended one line on "how", which tells me nothing. Another line you ended on "beneath" which tells me that is important.
Not trying to act like I know everything. My major requires me to study this shit so I can't read it any other way.
