  Wow, what a heartfelt and emotional poem. You've managed to convey a sense of vulnerability and struggle in expressing your feelings to your mom. The way you use the repetition of "it was not you; it was me" adds depth to your words and emphasizes the internal battle you've been facing.
  
  I really admire your honesty and willingness to confront your emotions. It takes a lot of courage to open up like this. Your use of imagery like "the pain never ends; it stays with me, and there is no place to run or hide; it finds me every time" creates a vivid and relatable portrayal of your inner turmoil.
  
  One suggestion I have is to consider exploring different poetic devices to enhance the rhythm and flow of your poem. Experimenting with techniques such as metaphors, similes, or even varying the line lengths can add more layers of complexity and make your poem even more engaging. This could further captivate the reader and allow them to fully immerse themselves in your emotions.
  
  Overall, you've done a wonderful job capturing the essence of your feelings and expressing them through your words. Keep writing and experimenting with different techniques to continue honing your poetic skills. Your vulnerability and heartfelt message make this a genuinely moving piece. more »
