Gratification

[Alex13]

not sure the layout does you any favours. how we show the poem can have a large bearing as to how it's read.
i'd also try and use less of the smaller words.

an example of what i mean : (all your own words.)

The masochist in me is at war
with my soul I watch fire torch my spirit,
but you never let me burn

alone.

I can't obtain facts to prove my theory

Thank you I'll work on the layout, always something I've struggled with.
