Reaching up into the skys
Pure pain within my eyes
Sadness behind my crude mask
Precaution against one great task
Confusion within my own mind
Is life really oh so kind
My soul haunting me in the night
But never causing me any fright
Death I fear and pain I feel
But I never know if it is real
A moment of love a moment of hate
A moment of realization a moment of fate
A moment to live for a moment to die
A moment to hate's fingers slowly pry
For fear will one time end our days
Because for every wrong someone pays
Good or bad right or wrong
My heart slowly stopping its cruel song
Looking up into the sky one last time
Just to finish this one rhyme

This poem touches my heart. Though I wish you would of used punctuation in areas. It would of appeared more to me. Also, instead of one big stanza break it up into litter stanza's so the flow of the poem isn't thrown off. One last thing you need to put your screen name in the authors box. Other than that it is quite amazing.
