Michael, if this is a poem, you might lineate it like one. Line breaks could give it a little more expressiveness. Also, you use too many abstract words (pain, madness, sadness) , as if simply telling the reader will make him feel what you feel. You should read LOTS of good contemporary poetry (Mary Oliver, C.K. Williams) if you want to improve.
