The Soul's intake
The Heart in which she breaks
Has Nothing yet to give to me

The Loveliness shows nothing more
The Yearning of an open door
Hatreds Force yet shoves me down
And Leaves nothing for me

Haven't i yet been put to shame?
She Shakes me down
I've Been marked the lame
She Points to make me feel so small
Nothing can be left
Nothing at All

All Courage Comes
All Faith Restored
And Something I Have For her
There, she turns to see
What I have in Me

She Begs and cries
I Hear her plea
"But You Got Nothing Left"
I Said to she

in poetry, capitalization and grammar mean a LOT. It makes me wonder are your capitalized words done so for a reason? If they are not, you should rethink the style.

it shows both that the speaker believes in themselves and that they believe in retribution. not sure if thats a good thing or bad, i guess its an opinion thing
