    Description:
       I think it has to do with life, how everyone is excpected to be something other than what their heart & head tell them. They all get to this point where there lost, and almost nothing, only from striving to be something... does that make any sense?

    Everything is blurry,
    Nothing registers in my mind,
    I feel like my head is hollow,
    I feel like my heart has been locked up in a safe,
    and I don't have the combination.

    I blank out all the time,
    People say that I'm "out of it",
    but how can you face reality,
    When you've nearly lost yourself in a superficial world.

    People tell you to be pretty,
    Skinny, sexy, almost stupid,
    To go find yourself an attractive man,
    To hide yourself within him.

    There's no such thing as choices anymore,
    There's only variations in guidlines,
    Y'know what I mean?
    There's no actually being yourself,
    There's only being a blank,
    A hole,
    A Void,
    Nothing,
    Gone,
    Dead...

      Nice writing! I did find myself wanting to read more. Yet, you did achieve to express alot. But going numb inside -should not! I think you expressed quite a bit of awareness of what is.

      This is actually a good teen angst poem. Surprise! I thought they were all the same! I liked your non-rhyming structure. The only thing I didn't like was the end. I felt like you didn't touch cliché until you said dead at the end. I don't really have any suggestions, but maybe something more open?

      Dude lets put it like this....That rocked, I vote a 5 for the poem. I like the truth in it, and how the poem doesn't have to rhyme, and the fact it has a nice form. Well that is all from me.

      Maybe try "My heart encased in a safe without a combination" It would also pull your structur back to 4 lines. I'd also let "There's only being blank" start another stanza....jaycee
