Defeated Pain

Composed in a bold owning the world way

High heels feverishly clicking on the concrete

In control she owns and dominates the day

 

Nothing fragile about this woman of steel

Ready to conquer whatever life throws her way

Refusing to be a coward and weakly kneel

 

Calm balmy air swirls settling her nerves

Sun shining down warming the heart and soul

No longer ashamed of her generous curves

 

Languid movements are her chosen style

Pushing away the cruel jaded memories

Leaving behind the twisted corrupt trials

 

Looking forward to a fresh new beginning

With inner confidence and a fiery spark

Triumphs revealed peace she is winning

 

Time is mending past sorrowful pain

Her heart healed ready to feel again

The yearning has been defeated and slain.

Kristina, this whole writin stuff is liking you isn't it? And we're liking it too for the way it has transformed you into this more confident and sure woman. I'm really happy about that. We all search and stumble for ways to express the weight of the world in our arms, its always nice to see when someone can use that expression to show kindness and inspiration to others. This is what you've become, and what you do. You keep on chipping away at that opaque crystal sphere okay that we all have that pens and impounds us, its always there regenerating itself, but now and then we hit it just right and the light brilliantly comes streaming in...

Like the Phoenix she rises up from the ashes that went down in flames... a wonderfully bold poem... such intense determination.

I liked the Internal Rhymes of the first and third stanzas. Other than that, this piece is straightforward, thoughtful and pretty much polished. My only problem is with the real lack of imagery, and the over-reliance on poetic escape hatches like: ‘cruel jaded memories,’ ‘ twisted corrupt trials.’ Thanks for posting, hope all is well.
