I actually know a little of this paranoia..this sense you have that others can see right thru you and know your deepest darkest secret....but in answer to your single vital question, i think you would be accepted Jenn, in the end...in fact, i know it ..:)

In many ways this poem fits scenario's in peoples lives, infidelity, secrets, lies, that destroy the common ground they once stood on.. Great poem, thanks.

Your style is reminiscent of a dramatic monologue. It forces the reader to take a position by directly posing the question to them. It makes the reader part of the verse. Well-crafted.
