First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest.
What I Liked
I could definitely feel the pain in your words. I liked the centering of this piece. Normally, I prefer to write free-verse poetry without the centering, unless it's Haiku, but I felt this worked very well. The colored font also added to the emotion, in my humble opinion. I also liked that you added line spaces here and there, for pause. Very effective.
Suggestions/Comments to Consider
The only suggestion I have, which isn't to say I am right and you are wrong, is that you experiment with taking away most of the punctuation and also uncapping the beginning of each line. It's just a suggestion. I think it would flow a wee better, adding to the forlorn emotion.
Final Thoughts
I felt such sadness while reading this. Excellent job pulling out this reader's emotions. Well-done!
Have a great day and... K e e p on W r i t i n g ! Cubby ")
