wipe your tears
stop fucking crying
you're worth more than that
don't let your makeup streak
-
keep your chin up
don't let them see the hell in your eyes
you're a better at acting than that
don't let your smile falter
-
glue your heart together
and stop caring so goddamned much
you can breathe without their help
don't let your scars show
-
set your own standards
stop trying to raise to their shitty level
you can raise their expectations
don't let your ego be unsettled
-
do what you want
buy yourself some damn starbucks
you don't need permission
don't let your independence dissapear
-
build a castle
where no one can tear down your walls
becuase you don't need anyone
you do not need anyone

Hello, Nire is here to review.
The title of your piece is really good and I almost loved it! The subject you have chosen, is nice too. I had a great feeling while I was reading it. You have used a nice pattern too. There are couple of lines which I found interesting enough. If only I can mention them..
And
Anyway, I really think you have written this poetry in a hurry. Don't you think? Here's why-
And,
And again, I'm confused about this line:
Did you actually want to use "Raise?" As this word is showing some different meaning to me. Whatever, it was a nice read and inspirational.
Hope you'll edit the few errors you've made!
~Have a nice day or night~

that was some good encouragement for a broken heart. personally i feel even myself in need of something similar and positive so i felt a good connection to this poem
however i suggest some points which needs some thought like-
"glue your heart together"- you may use instead_ " stick the broken pieces of your heart"
i like the expression you used here just the work 'glue" seemed quiet childish.
"don't let your independence disappear" -" the work disappear" sounds off to my ear. i would rather suggest use the word " surrender"
overall, i liked your poem. you have quite good potential and a pain, either of which leads to good poetry. i would be looking forward to see more of your works.
keep writing
