"What do you want?" you ask
I want to know that you still care
I want to feel the love we once shared
But for not I must keep my emotions safe
No longer will I be disgraced
The cracks in my armor are spreading
So I'll salvage what's left
And hide what's inside
From outsider theft
I'll shadow my once bright dream of a wedding
And live day to day
To save myself from farther dismay
Leaning on you used to be
Like resting against a strong, sturdy tree
But now that tree
Has tuned into a catus
That is pricking me
Better for me to stand on my own two feet.
Taking risks has left me weak.
So, for there to be an 'us'
You'll have to start chasing me
Because why should I chase a firefly
That is about to turn into a bee?
No, I won't let you see me cry.
You won't know how this is affecting me.
"I guess I just wanted to say hi," I lie.

as far as structural poetry, this has rythm, timing, and a beat. Emotionally... it's expressive, sad and almost pitable...

"There once was a man from Peru
Who dreamed he was eating his shoe
He woke with a fright
In the middle of the night
To realize his dream had come true." ~ SpongeBob SquarePants

All you did was express yourself and share your feelings with the world; that's what art is.
