New Poem, what do you think?
Give and Take
I won’t compromise
My integrity
Listen to your
Empty words and
Voided dreams
I won’t change myself
To suit your desires
Or be drawn into the
Insecurity quagmire
And of all your lies
I’m just tired
I will no longer
Feed that fire
And I may not be
What you want to see
But I found that I’m happy
To simply be me.

I like these kind of poems as I think they have the potential to be really passionate, something that your poem unfortunately isn't, I can see that there is a strong message in there but it needs to be fortified by passion and also it needs to be convincing, it sounds kind of half hearted. I like your poem, it's just a bit ordinary. You need to tell how you feel, and maybe use more metaphors. I love the line "feed that fire", I think you've used it very well.

I like it. it's really hard for me to simply read it as a poem and not imagine music beats, because they sound they would make good song lyrics. =P But yeah, it's great, the best I've read in a while.
