Stop

Stop.
Stop with the stares,
The labels,
The looks of distain
When a tear is shed at the pain you made.
Stop.
Stop whispering in "secret",
Venom dripping,
Voices laughing loudly,
Making sure Im close enough to hear what you say.
Stop.
Stop pretending you care,
False compassion,
It cuts like a knife,
While you turn and humiliate, betraying my trust.
Stop.
No one is perfect,
Especially me,
But definately not you,
The more you try pretending, the more your flaws show.
So Stop.
Stop trying to be perfect,
Living lies,
Beating me down,
Hating that I don't try and wear that same perfect facade.
Stop.
You're just hurting yourself,
Unending pain,
Your endless lies suffocating,
We all know you aren't perfect, so why keep pretending?
Stop.
Your hateful words and glares,
Impaling hearts,
Making others feel weak,
While you're in reality the weakest of all.
Stop.
Stop excluding in delusion,
None's better,
Unless you choose to be worse,
So quit the charade, the poison-laced words.
Stop.
Tricking yourself day by day,
Lying endlessly,
Hurting others who would never hurt you,
Out of all these lines, I have only one thing to say to you.
Stop.

This is a good poem that a lot of people should get through their head and think about what they are doing. I agree with Silent Wolf that maybe you could make each stanza start with the word stop or end it with stop. Great job I enjoyed reading this poem.

One thing I think is if you separated it, making each stanza start/end with Stop. Otherwise, I rather enjoyed reading this. I wish I had the guts to say something like this in person, however, for some people need to hear this.
