Ok, so.... I got a bit carried away with this one. It was only supposed to be a short tester of a style. I don't really like how I ended it, but I don't think I would have been able to come up with a better finishing point even if I kept going, so it would have just been endless... anyways! sweatdrop Read on 'coz you want to. Enjoy 'coz you can. Comment, 'coz you love me? 3nodding

</b><br/>She’s confused<br/>She can’t quite tell whether she’s being<br/>Used. Abused?<br/>The bruises suggest it but she has no<br/>Clue. Why?<br/>Her life in your hands and she cannot<br/>Defy. Lie?<br/>Though she’d rather give in to your whims she must<br/>Try. Cry?<br/>She refuses to show all but strength in her<br/>Eyes. Pay?<br/>There is no price left that you could possibly<br/>Name. Blame?<br/>She’d rather move on if it’s all the<br/>Same. Fake?<br/>Yes, but she calls it raising the<br/>Stakes.

The style is new for you, and I really like it. It adds... a unique flow to the poem. The rhyming wasn't uniform, but I still like it. I like how the questions lead into the next line but usually tie in the line before it. I found it a bit... confusing isn't the word I'm looking for, but it's close enough. I do love your last line.. stanza... thing.
