Poetry can be very therapeutic. It is also very personal, and in my opinion if writing this poem gave you some relief it achieved its purpose. I am hoping that this is at least in part fictional!
Technically, and I don't know what the exact rules are for poetry, I think you need to remove a few commas, for example,
The blade,
is cold.
and
Hate,
overwhelms me.
I don't know that much about poetry, but grammatically this is wrong.
On a personal note, most of us have loved and lost before. The pain doesn't lessen with age, but our ability to handle it does. Hang in there
This is too short to really judge it. It has no beginning and no end, which makes it kind of dream-like. Perhaps that is what you intended, but the ending is too open for the reader to even guess who the man is. It needs a conclusion of some kind, even if you just say that she woke up and it was all a dream, and the man is lying next to her in bed, or something like that.
I spotted a few typos:
She hears someone coming, a man with a tray opens the door and comes in. - this should be two sentences.
Three men unknowen to her appear. - unknown
Puzzled she goes into the room and changes - comma after "puzzled
...and he leads her out onto the floor and they begin to slow dance - begin to dance slowly, or begin a slow dance
Let me know if you finish the story, I'd like to read it again when it is complete.
