i reread this prolly ten times. at first i was like aight its basically poem structure rhyming every other line. kinda long lines and for me it just wasnt flowing. but then eminems "bully" is basically a limerick and it would prolly look unflowable if cold read so i dont know. i give u props for trying different structures.
but then the flow of inner "o" rhymes caught my eye and i was like there all multiples. or close.

to b honest i still think the back/that end rhyme still throw the flow but what u got goin on with the inner rhymes is some complex thinking. keep at that.
i jus quick i also liked this from the next verse...
’ve warned with plenty patience, I’m right where I belong so
I have no future so I’ll write like no tomorrow
like the feel of.. belong so/tomorrow
