Tattered Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 (edited) I am on a RAMPAGE let the FIRE FLARE Like a Bat out of hell I feel like flying out of here I just can't seem to please you or you or you So WHAT is the point why do I even care? I make no sense and I could care less I am going no where but this is my life I make dumb choices but that's in your eyes This is my life so live and let live I am a big girl and I can take care of me I am an adult now so stop telling me what to be I am not afraid anymore so stop directing me I am the only one who can answer for me Do you all even realize the effect you have on me? When you look at me what do you see? Do you see who I am and may come to be? Or an extension of yourself, who you'd like me to be? I am so sick of your negativity Life is just too short to live unhappy coedependency is not working for me Stop trying to manipulate and control me I am NOT your puppet set me free I am NOT at your dissposal can't you see? And I am certianly not your property I am NOT perfect and don't pretend to be The plan keeps changing and I can't keep up This little plan you are devising to lift you up To tread on higher ground than anyone What role can I play for you, till you use me all up?

Gryphon Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 As I read this I couldn't but help myself thinking that I'd felt this in the past, or something much like it. I don't know why because I doubt I could actually name any incidents that caused me to feel this way. I guess the best I have to offer is that you touched something in me, and I resonated to what you were writing. For what it's worth...

Zadown Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 That's a more coherent and well-written angry poem than most. I liked it. *nod* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetcherrie Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 (edited) I can feel the anger while reading, well done!! (btw, it's probably good to get it all out, all the better if you beam your anger into a creative direction) - Sweetcherrie Edited February 5, 2005 by Sweetcherrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peredhil Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Yay! It is NOT a bad thing to get angry when it is the right time and used effectively. Anger is better than fear any day. And the things you list are all things about which to be peeved. Go go go! Break free. If one of your jailers doesn't like the "new" you (they try to label and call names; guilt is in their tongues), then refuse to meekly put the shackles back on. Be aware, the most dangerous thing about freedom is that they is no one else to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattered Posted February 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Thanks to everyone! XOXOXO I feel so loved. There are few things nicer than to know that through my troubles and expressions, I am not alone. I still am in the middle of my angst, and I will most likely write more sad poetry. But it helps me. So bare with me and please, continue to comment whatever you wish. It means a lot to me. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
