Why I'm Here

Why I'm Here

A Poem by I Am Svetlana

I am here

Because I have potential.

I have scars to prove my disappointment

To many people.

I should've stopped after the first scar,

But didn't.

I am here

To prove I am strong to others.

I can stand my ground

Against evil forces.

I am here

Because I deserve to be.

Deserving, and willing!! Your writing is always unique, and in this case, strong hearted, determined, and straight forward. It lets me know, that I have scars to prove to myself that I was slipping, but I have scars to let everyone see i'm reaching out, and that it's not just a "pity me party" as my father claims. Proving to everyone that you CAN overcome the obsticles in your life shows that you have a goal, shows that you ARE strong. Your writing always holds a meaning of some sort, and it personally (to me) reaches out, extends a hand to bring someone up, someone who is waiting for your hand. Your writing is always well written, and I hope to read some more soon.

I admire the fortitude in this piece. The notion that scars build character is realistic. Highly inspiration work.

This is a strong poem, reflecting what you really are. I indeed like the confidence that you have in yourself. I have written recently a poem, having the same theme !
