I don't think you gave it very much effort in the first place

any song that starts with lord oh lord and i tune out immediately. and if he is toiling until his fingers bleed, shouldn't that mean the days are as long as the nights?
instead of writing a poorly drafted suicide note, why not write about the story behind what when wrong, that would be 100 times more interesting.
what the heck happened to this site? it's like a freaking ghost town?! was there some horrible accident in my three year absence?!
I would just like to say what a great poem this is. But then I would be a liar. It's horse spunk.
This reminds of a style I've seen before, by the guy who wrote these;
Plume Gateau
Shouting at Dogs
Naylor's handbag
Brand new blue book jacket
Teaching beetles to swim
The Kid
Pet Hatreds
Shoe hole
Down on Dogs
Pelted with stones on the common
Oddly enough, you seem to have written the mas well, although somewhat after the creation of these timeless classics, how could that be? Oh I know, cos you're a loser.
Bobjim will have claimed to have written that poem, watch out

And admitting you've copied it makes you seem a little odd
good effort, seems a little disjunctive though. i'm tuned out by some of the cliche words "agony", "inferno", "illicit desire". i like lines 4-9. maybe go into why you lie, sign, can't cry though instead of just saying it. paint the picture so the audience understands, otherwise it's something people can't connect to. i suggest getting some sort of modern anthology on poetry, read it, repeat. i think the goal is that you want the audience to feel something that touches them through a descriptive story of pretty words.
i like the poem, good images, don't really see what it's saying though, thematically, maybe i'm just not trying hard enough.
there could be something good here, maybe a couple more stanzas would help to flush it out.
i like "of all things arms can do with grace" a lot. the rest of the song, eh. maybe i just need to hear it.
I like it a lot. But I don't get why the denial will help the character sleep.
