Your poem is thought-provoking. Since this is for the "Betrayal" contest, I'm guessing that the narrator speaks of the feelings after love has gone and the sense of betrayal is that hovering wrench that could ruin the hope of love again?
Best wishes in the contest!

I like the ideas you want us to see. It just needs a little more structure. If your going to rhyme , do it more consistently. It sets the pace of the poem. You don't have to rhyme but use a flow. Don't be afraid of metaphors or adjectives. They help describe emotions and environments.

Not sure what the fear is here? Perhaps it is life itself as some people don't have the courage to live and be happy, an unusual post, love Dolly x x x x x

I thought this was well written. I love the imagery in your poem. Thrashing in the rain and slipping in puddles evokes a feeling of struggle and vulnerability, while the act of pretending to dance suggests that there is really no control. Wonderful word choices and an enjoyable poem.
