Ah, don't go running yourself down, Annie. There's always plenty of other people that are happy to do that for you.

This is maybe a bit short. Could you big it up a bit? And while you're about it, big yourself up a bit as well.

Cheers

Hello anniecat,

My first post, so I'll try and be useful!

I like the shortness of your poem, I symbolises the shallowness you speak of. But this is aesthetic, if you look at the emotion in the poem it's not. There is self-examination. And the 'shallow person me' sounds kind of childish- but in a poetic way.
I noticed that you included the word 'cast' in your poem. Does this mean you are infatuated by this person but don't feel good enough? Maybe infatuation evokes those sorts of feelings, because love may not be recipricated.
Also are you spiritual? The word 'cast' is really standing out to me!

"Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)"

That's what I've been thinking of.

By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry.
Is it over me?
If it is, save your tears
for I'm not worth it, you see.

while all are grasping these moments of spring you speak of sadness here and hurt.
Well let me say I understand if I may. Take it from me I cry every day.

I like this honesty
