Their hate

By poe_lover28

their eyes

they torture me with their disatisfaction

their tears

they torture me with disapointment

their glares

they torture me with inner hatred

their words

they torture me with rememberence

i will never forget

they will never forgive

why should i?

why should they??

why why why

when they are down and out

i cause a stir and make everyone shout
 
so why should they?

i just hope i find a way

not just any way, the right way

even with such distaste

theyll make sure my years arent a waste

i just hope one day

ill find the right way

i hope one day i will see

i can look into the mirror and like being me

    This is definitely a great one. I hope you can get over other people's hatred. I'm suffering in my own life on this same topic, but haven't yet written on it. :)

    Loved your structure and the flow of the poem.

    Such depth... I could relate to this in my younger years. Don't fall victim to picking yourself apart, especially on account of others. Bows- Scholar

  • A former member wrote: The constant judgement and 'dissatisfaction' from others can really apply a crushing pressure. Just need to rise above it and realize that peoples opinions of you bear little consequence in the long run. Love this, one of my favorites, just all around excellent.

    The first half came on very strong, I appreciated your simple choice in words. Not overly verbose. I don't like it when poeple try to overcompensate with big words. You kept it dense and didn't allow it to lose meaning but the second half all except for the last line didn't have the same flare. But overall a mustlike. Nice.

    Very emotional! Reminds me a lot of my high school days... Great write!

  • A former member wrote: Im a bit late to the party here but oh well. I think I remember when you read this to me. But this reminds of of a rather dark time in my life, where all I did every day was pretend to be someone I wasnt just so I could stay safe. Very good write keep it up :)

    This poem reminds me of the constant criticism in life I Take For Being Different. In reality I'm being me but they don't seem to get that, why can't they chill and let me be free? Let me live my own life!

    i understand, its hard not being like everyone else, its better to be different, dont listen to them, be yourself, be unique, you are only free if you choose to be, to let yourself be free is your choice, weither to listen to them or not

    Very good write here. The introspective mind is usually the sharpest. Just know that you make the looks of your identity, both to others and yourself. If you don't like what you see in the mirror and can't change, atleast putting on another mask will help make things tolerable until change can be met.. keep the pen flowing as these feelings may surge. That alone may be enough to help

    just reading your works is enough to help influence mine that means alot coming from such a good writerr!

  • A former member wrote: What a great piece, to look at the reflection that stares back through cold, lying eyes and dislike what you see. It's great! The only thing to do in these moments is wait for a better day and let go of the past. You may think you hold no grudge towards whatever happened, but that's what I thought too. The day I finally decided to leave the past behind and say I don't care was the day I could stand the person looking back at me. Sometimes now I can actually look in the mirror and pretend to see something worth looking at. That helps. Try it.

    Thats not what i ment, when you look in the mirror ,you feel bad for the things you've done, this means you have change, you are not same, thats a good thing, forgive yourself, that all you can do, how you live the rest of your life, thats what will define you. the people who really love you, will see too. Best EC

  • A former member wrote: This is lovely. The face in the mirror isn't what defines you though.

    Never let anyone define you, everyone makes a bad choice or a few somewhere in their life. Its you looking in that mirror, only you, What see is remorse and that a good thing! Good pen job
