words

tell me
why do we weep
why do we allow our tears to stain our cheeks
why do we allow ourselves to crumble

show me
the pain that is caused through your words
how hard you work to keep me happy
how far you would go to keep me happy

is it true
do you really love me
would you hold me as your painful words echo through my head
will you go destroy them we i crumble

i am tired of this game
why do you constantly tear me apart
leaving me torn and broken
your words like knifes slicing my skin

i have bled enough
have felt enough of this pain
now i shall return the favor

you are an a*s
your words mean nothing
i am invincible
nothing you do will stop me

i will fight
as i was meant to
so screw you and your words
they are nothing more than that....words

words
syllables
vowels
consonants
letters

empty words that hurt
piercing knifes that slice

i am walking away
standing strong

This is a place many of us find ourselves at one time or another. To stay or walk away?
You've done a great job here in capturing both the emotional dilemma and the strong realization needed to move beyond it.

[Rob Santana]

Strong words,always good to express yourself.Good job here.

[RachelReaper]

what i love most about this poem is the amount of fight you have in you. Your not going down and you don't care how many odds or people are stacked against you. Wonderful! and expressive!

Good read, there is true strength in this poem and it well written. Though I'm not quite sure what this line means
"will you go destroy them we i crumble"
other than that, good write!!

[TurtleClark]

oops its suppose to say will you go destroy them when i crumble

[Sid]

That makes a lot more sense :)

[Leslie Philibert]

What I like here are the quiet, simple statements that introduce each verse - a good idea in a fine poem

I like this a lot, actually. It's very easy to relate to, and very well-written as your poems generally are. Very good read (:

One tip;
I think a bit of capitalization would emphasize your point a little better.
