RANT

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT. I got the joy of being chewed out for writing my thoughts on a friend, infact my perceptions that i posted not too long ago.

Watch your words, but embrace your passion.
Think what you want, but tell know one.
Write your heart, but never make it public.
You can feel that way, but never EVER let it be known.
STOP!
I can’t do this! I’m dying a little each time you tell me such things.
I’m not your doll, I’m not your daughter.
I trusted you with my thoughts, my feelings, I came to you for advice.
And you give me this.
NO MORE
I’m through being in your shadow.
No longer a pale imitation of you, I have dreams and thoughts, hopes fears and love.
I’ll stand on my own, without you if I must.
I LOVE you.
But you abused my trust, you took advantage of my weakness.
And I can no longer stand by and watch you live my life for me.
I’ll speak and be heard, my OWN words, my own deeds.
I’ll let the WORLD know my passions.
I’ll think my thoughts proudly, and never again second guess myself.
I’ll write what I please.
I swear that one day, the world will wait with bated breath for every word that I pen to be made PUBLIC.

So will you stand beside me? Or will I toss you to the side?
Will you be someone I cherish?
Or will you be a sad memory to be learned from?
It’s your choice, I wont be waiting.

I love to read a good rant, and this is one of those.
Sort of like say one thing, yet I'll do another. Why? People need to feel in control, powerful, and forget that pain may be caused along the path. This is very expressive, concise and I am glad you shared this with us. Good Job!!

This was great!!! And I know exactly what you talking about.
Some people tell you one thing and mean the exact opposite.


Great rant thanks for sharing.

When self-restraint has reached its limits, retaliation seems to be the only way to make even. Letting thoughts and emotions come to the open, giving them freedom to be heard and recognized. That, afterall, defines existence.

Well vented sweetie, so glad to see something ne from you... why is it loved ones always want to hold us back... they should respect our opinions whether they agree or not, you don't always have to see eye to eye to have love and respect... and when you voice your displeasure in something they are doing why must they take offense instead of realizing you are just concerned for them... your voice should be strong and proud my Irish friend.

Ranting I find become the most interesting poems of all
And you have a very good rant over here.
If there is something to be said, then it should be heard
Well done
