Shattered

Showing you that I am worthy of your love

Having to put up with your hostility and rage

Acting like it doesn't bother me

Telling myself it does

Too scared to make a reaction

Everything relying on a single feeling that isn't even my own anymore

Ripped out of my skin

Everything revolves around you

Demon inside your soul

Sometimes we have to let the demon in our lives go, and if not he will shatter each and everyone else until we are a little shard of glass with very little hope of surviving in this cruel world.

Powerful and emotional poem, I can feel strong feelings behind this. I can also relate, and that fact to me is somewhat important, it's easy to like poems you can relate to.
Your style to write is really good, it makes me curious to see what else you have written. I really like the "Demon inside your soul", it's really powerful.
Good job!

Blunt. Strong. Bold.
Conveying a lot of frustration and heart break.
Really enjoyed reading and I love all your work.
You got skill and I think I might be just a little jealous ;)
But job well done

What an honor, I really appreciate your kind words :)

This is brutally blunt, just like the emotion conveyed to you through hostility and rage. Well written, thought filled write. I especially like the end lines. How true they are.

Thank you so much- I knew it would be blunt, but that's kind of the essence... through experience, I have learned that no matter how hard you try to make it the opposite, people unfortunately will be cruel to you, and I wanted to convey that in a way that wasn't so dry. I appreciate the words :)
