Critical

Something to keep me awake.

Critical?
Who me?
Critical?
Why do you say that?
I only tell the truth
I only say what you want
Me to say
Critical?
How can this be so?
Critical?
What is critical anyway?
Disapproving?
Maybe
Who knows.
Do you?
Or are you really the critical one?
You are always rude
Always, always
Pushing
Always
Over analyzing me
If you think I am the critical one
I think you should look in the mirror
And think about what you say
To one who knows you so well

We put on ourselves

nicely done.

You tricked me on this one SM, I thought it might be about dying but you turned it around. Sounds like someone finally speaking their mind and doing it with a strong clear voice. Nice poem.

You are always rude

Annoying when people ask for your opinion and then get all flustered. This speaks well of that to me

This poem was very interesting, quite different but I like it. I like the last four lines, in my opinion that was the spotlight of the poem. Very good job on this one.
