Self Destruct

Self Destruct

A Poem by Tania Leigh

look at me

see the rage

there’s a tempest

rising within me

feel my icy stare

on you

know that I have

limits, boundaries

and they have been

crossed by you

always you

pushing me

testing me

satisfying

your sick ego

at my expense

no more

my love

remember this

anything

that you

construct

may one day

self destruct

This is me on a bad hair day...:)

Seriously, building upon a poor foundation is ruinous. Very direct and biting.

Nice job, Tania

I love your writings, as you have tapped into feelings I too have had.
This is awesome. Once again the scene is stated so clear, like in your other poems!
TALENT! I really like the way you broke the lines into short ones as it reveals the
incredible tenseness and anger of the moment!

Guys are like that, like a remote control where all the selected channels you push go right back to "him." For lots of guys, when she finally gets wise, the only clue they get is the door slamming them in the a*s when told to leave the room. Many never get it, or believe she is really saying good-bye, they end up convincing themselves that the break-up was his choice: Tick-Tock, loser.

...feel my icy stare...on you

Nice one-two punch in those two small words.

That's a skill I envy.

It's refreshing to read the words of someone who has a line , who will take the stand against he that would cross it, trying to siphon your self-respect. This piece is determined rage. It has a finality to it I like. Rain..

"anything
that you
construct
may one day
self destruct" I love that line and the truth behind it. Simply put: I really like this!
