Destroy, Destroy, Destroy

You people Destroy dreams,
You people put me down, belittle me,
You people have poisoned my heart.

You people tear, shred, rupture
Rapture &Reality.

But I guess it wouldn’t be life
without people to destroy things-
even Dreams, Rapture, and Reality.

cool poem, but to be honest i would have like more show rather than tel. you are teelling the reader how terible the world is and how some people destroy, but i think that with a little more structure and metaphiors, the reader/ me will be able to resonate more with the feelings presented. the foundation is there, but the constructions not quite finished. great job though! it has  the makings of a real work of art!
