The past is my future,
The future is my past.
I’m stuck in the middle,
My soul cannot last.
The truth is locked up,
Where others can’t see.
All they do is put a dirty reputation on me.
They think I don’t know the secrets they hide
They think I’m stupid, they think I’m blind
They don’t realize what they’ve done to me,
They’ve ruptured my life and won’t set me free.
But like a bird I will fly, up into the sky
Not hearing their snickers
Not hearing their lies.

Haha Well I'm not exactly saying I like all depressing ones or anything.  In fact, this one seems to show how strong she is in the end of the poem.  I just like a LOT of variety.  =]  Your romance ones seem pretty good, but some are a little bit too cliched, that's all.

I really like this piece of yours in particular.  A lot of yours are about romance (not saying they're bad, they're good too =] ). 

Nothing to critique about this poem.  All I can say is, I completely know what you're talking about.  (Even if this was a project for that book)
