No More Crap

I'm not going down 
without a fight 
You can do what you want 
try as hard as you like 

Makes no difference to me
I'm used to life's pain 
Knock me down 
I'll just get up again 

You think cause I'm a girl 
you can push me around 
Well you'd better watch out 
or you'll hit the ground

I ain't no p***y 
no weak little girl 
I've seen it all 
been through the fires of hell 

So you'd better think twice 
before picking on me 
Cause I ain't as sweet 
as I used to be 

I've been battered and bruised 
and treated like dirt 
Stomped on and spat on 
left broken and hurt 

But those days are over
ain't no doubt about that 
Now I've made up my mind 
to take no more crap 

So don't threaten me 
or you'll  be risking your life 
Cause I ain't going down 
without a massive fight

Oh this is just amazing, Coralann...Very intense, fiery anger unleashing through
The depths of your soul! I'm at this place in my life right now, could very much
Relate to this poem.

Very accurate description of when one has reached
their limit, due to any kind of abuse, betrayal, after a while, you're left with no choice but to
Strike back, even if it's by silence, confrontation, or just cutting them out of your life
For good.

This write, gives us, the readers, a glimpse into your strength, belief
In yourself...a true survivor, kudos to you!

Back to this poem, brilliant use of rhyming scheme, and lyrical flow,
I had Megadeth echoing in my head while reading this.

Thanks for sharing, I personally found it inspiring and
I'm truly sorry that you are or were in this place.

Sends you positive energy and light! 100/100 (favs)

Not bad. I wanted more descriptive details about how youve been previously mistreated, yet shook it off, but still not bad. I wanted more metaphors, etc, but nothing is wrong with simplistic bold statements.

[Carolann Dowsett]

Well we don't always get what we want I guess. Thanks.

Life is not a picnic it is always better if we find an ally to get through the pain

[Carolann Dowsett]

Never back down !! it's not all about physical power, it's about heart and that's what makes you truly powerful. I've always known you were a warrior, acquired scars and faced many obstacles but persevered and now you're even more powerful with even more heart and the world better watch out cause, for Carolann this is just the start!
Kudos, you inspire us all.

[Carolann Dowsett]

Wow, I think you let it all out in this one. Loved the rhyme. I still think you're as sweet as you used to be. Very nice.

I'm still sweet as long as I'm not threatened. :) thanks Jack :)
