There was a time,
you were all I knew,
everything I did,
I did it for you
I excepted you in every way,
all the nights you got drunk,
how you would sleep all day
I stood by your side,
through it all,
you could never take the blame,
you always let me take the fall
You've abused me to the point of no return,
if you were on fire, I'd watch you burn
I was so blinded by love,
that I couldn't see,
how weak I became,
to let you walk all over me
You never even worked,
just partied all night,
when you came home to me,
all you did was start a fight
All you did was abuse,
everyone you knew,
from your father to your mother,
even me who truly loved you
Maybe one day you'll grow up and see,
your fucked up ways aren't working,
they cost you the price of losing me
So go party your ass off til you drop,
it's so fucking sad how you don't know when to stop,
so you have your bottle and lets not forget your guitar,
which you smashed over my head, yeah you went just a bit too far
Don't ever forget karmas a bitch,
I've moved on with a real man now,
how's that for a switch
you were all I knew,
everything I did,
I did it for you

To amy, I give you so much credit for moving on and finding a man who treats you the way you deserve to be treated!! We can always find a loser, its the good ones that are hard to find!! So keep your head up and know in your heart you deserve the best, not some loser who will just bring you down!!

You've painted here the life of Amy as its been up to not so long ago, a very emotional, up and down but mostly down history. It is clear why she put you in the finals, such you have captured here of her once sad life. Your rhyming works well here and moves the poem along at a nice pace. This poem if it were not based on something that really happened, it still would be brilliant. As it is based on the life of a real person, namely our dear friend here at AP, it makes it just that more brilliant. Good luck here in this contest, although you may not need it.

very well penned poem...I think you expressed the emotions and thoughts perfectly, loved the slight arogant touch it has, it adds a nice edginess to it...I really liked reading it, hope you will do well in the contest...
take care

you go girl, get the ying yang out. I am real sorry, you know I would never joke in such a way. Its not funny not at all,,,,,but the ying yang, is the words i refer too, when I lack better ones so forgive me....you came out stronger, you came out better, you came out wiser.you came out with more insight, you came out with more love than less love..but the point I am trying to make is that you got out..........go for you and all the best now and always............and I am sure your special love loves you just as much.........
