sorry for the caps... its just hard to come by answers for me.. idk why... and thanks for answering.
what do you think of this poem??

No title yet.

Rummaging through her things,
contemplating on what to take,
and what to leave behind.
A gun shot sounds through the black night,
such a loud, piercing sound.
Just the right thing to make her crack.
Falls hard onto the floor,
scooting herself into the corner,
the only source of peace.
Cradling her head in her knees,
her body starts to shake.
Quivering uncontrollably,
a water substance leaks,
from her mystic gray-blue eyes,
bathing her cheeks in tears.

Pushing her dark, course hair away,
she begins to search for it.
Almost becoming desperate,
finally, she finds it.
She feels the sharp edges over,
she found her own blade.
Setting it to her dry throat,
taking in her last breath,
and within a quick jerk of her arm,
she falls dead to the floor.

Corpse left to be only found,
to let her father know,
that he was just way too late,
that he should never had left,
that he should have been responsible,
that he should have just loved her.

JaJa, I love your poem. You are still evolving, so don't be so hard on yourself. Know that writing from the heart, whether it be of extreme happiness or the darkest despair is not going to appeal to everyone, however, as long as you're true to your art, your passion, someone will want to, need to hear what you have to say.
Don't stop ....

The repitition at the end was good, but the rest seemed like you were simply telling a story. Maybe add some more literary techniques to it. Being a poem it needs to have some ambiguity in its meaning. So, spruce it up a bit and make the reader think about what you are trying to say. Not just flat out state the circumstances the character is facing.

I think it is a good poem, but the use of such larger words throughout the poem is unecessary because it makes you stop and try to pronounce them when really you want to read this with a flow, try to think of other words that mean the same, that can replace the big words that are shorter.

quite sad, poor girl took her life because Dad left and showed no love for her! In my opinion, that'd not be the best way "to let her father know,/that he was just way too late,that he should never had left." I shiver at the thought about the event. It'd be better talk to Dad. Loneliness can bring depressions and stress for teens but taking one's life does not help at all.
Good poem but I fear it can influence some teens that the gun would solve their problems!!

It is very good, I think the name for it should be Searching.
Because she was searching for peace.
