this is true it is about me and my biological father. i think that writing poetry or keeping a journal is a good thing and if you are going to be cruel and rude about it do not even rate it or sayanything about it. because this is just how i feel sometimes. and my real father has beat me before and almost killed my mother before thats why i dont have anything to do with him and i write how i feel about him

See i wont call ur peace of work exciting, amazing, marvellous or faboulous. Honestly this poem is truly good but not excellent but whatever it is i feel is perfectly fine u've just wrote here what u have expereinced and i bet only a handful of people can write about their feelings and things they have truly experienced. I dont care what people say about ur poem but i am truly amazed at the great effort u have made. I would honestly rate u 16 and do show this to your dad maybe he'll understand the great mistake he has made throgh the years.N do keep up da great work.

There are several issues here, poetry being only one of them. You asked for a review of your poetry, not your perceptions of relationships or psychology, so that's what I'll provide, feedback on your poetry.
Scale of 1-20: 9
Poetry is art, and as such, it needs to comply with certain rules, such as grammar, form, and syntax. You should use both capital and lower case letters, not just capitals. You should also use a spell checker:
yesterday
remember
Grandma's
daughter
Grammar is also important, so you need to use punctuation (periods, commas, etc.) and avoid repetition as in "it is now time for me to move on now" (it should read either "it is now time for me to move on" or "it is time for me to move on now")
You've decided to use free verse, so rhyming is not a problem, but you lose all form after the first few lines. You should establish a rhythm and stick with it; you started out okay, but as your emotions fired up you started in a prosaic rant. Keep your form.
Also, remember, poetry "shows", prose "tells". Your poem reads more like a diary entry because it simply tells. The repetition of "why, why daddy, why" is okay as a poetic device, but it is insufficient to carry the weight of the entire poem.
You have sufficient passion, you just need to refocus it so it paints a picture rather than lists what he did wrong or the questions you have for him. "bruises are a strange way to show your love" shows that he hit you; "you hit me all the time" tells us what he did, and that's prose, not poetry.
Refocus your energy and try to paint us a picture of the situation rather than just explain it...and keep writing.

On the basis of skill and creativity with words for poetry, I would rate your poem 6 maybe.The poem is about how you feel, so I cant rate what you think, or how you feel. I could rate your honesty in that regard at 18. What we feel or think is sometimes exaggerated outside the sphere of reality by our emotions, because our expectations of others and the level of what they should mean to us, or what we should mean to them, can be an exaggerated expectation. If you could adjust the level of expectation of others in relationship, you should become more settled within yourself, and your life. You might find you'll be a happier person.

Well to be honest it is a little long winded, good wording though, stricking imagery, If 1 is great and 20 bad I would give this poem a solid 8
