Weak! Because i am emotional. Because i cry for others, because my anger rages and leaves chaos, because my physical form trembles with fear and confusion of the cruel world it inhabits. Being raised by animals, they care nothing of emotions, weakness. They care about violence, savagery, power over one another, they care only of themselves. My emotions are everything i am. My eyes open every morning and close every night feeling so deeply about life and how high i want to be on it enjoy every moment, smile every second, laugh everyday, and cry every night. But i was seen as weak in my families eyes, when i cried for lacking happiness, when i enraged towards a hateful, brutal father, when i feared change and cruelty from my loved ones and my environment. My emotions become me, they drive me. I live every waking moment feeling others emotions as if they were my own , i walk in the shoes of every person i meet feeling every experience they share with me as if it were my own, and just like that i am high on life. Although i suffer with depression being the result of my own experiences, i now embrace thee emotional living.
This is a great poem, its kind of raw though.. in order to make the poem flow more, I would suggest taking off most of your end punctuation because it makes it feel choppy. Also, where your new lines start seems a little out of place. For example. You have it set up like this
"Because I cry for others, because my anger rages and leaves chaos, because my physical form trembles with fear and confusion of the cruel world it inhabits."
but it might make more sense like this
"Because I cry for others, because my anger rages and leaves chaos
because my physical form trembles with fear and confusion of the cruel world it inhabits."
Just some suggestions...
