Angel go home

Angel go home

A Poem by SarahCortland
"

To each his own

"
Your anger it doesn't phase me
Your yelling just a noise 
Your kicking your punching
I have nothing for you to destroy

Your words mean nothing
These wounds aren't sore 
I feel unaffected 
You can't win this war

I'm not scared 
I have not a feeling inside
I'm unbreakable 
This body is simply where I temporarily reside

Your existence holds no power
No reign over me
Your strength is nothing
It's pointless can't you see?

Sure this body is bleeding
 It lies broken on the floor
Surely you don't think it's me
For you have no power I've said this before

I am not from here
And you will get your dues
I can finally go home 
It is now your turn to loose

For that body is your punishment
And my get out of jail free
As you go In I go 
Home where you hold no power over me

I didn't understand the last stanza, but I loved the rest. And Not your typical girl is right, when you say, "your existence holds no power over me" it isn't entirely true because in the poem you say words lines like "i can finally go home" and "you can't win this war" and that makes me think well the target's existence did hold power at some point and you've channeled or received enough strength to overcome him/her.

The fifth stanza could be exploited more, but that's my opinion.

I loved the emotion on here, though, such anger that smolders me up, makes me want to write a fight scene, ha. Loved it!

I love the FIGHT in this. Now THIS was so much better than that last one you wanted a review for. I knew you had it in you to write something like this which was so full of emotion, of feeling.
I love the 1st stanza b the way. I think the concept of being impervious to hurt, is a reflection of how much you are actually both hurt and scarred.
This made me think. I'm not sure I agree with you when you say this person can't hurt you, because they can, and they are, but i like the determination, the stubbornness, and the drive in this.
