In Spite Of You

Allowing myself to overcome,
Taking the good with the bad
Making sure I am the one,
Who knows that you are mad

Insanity races threw your veins,
I see it coarse and flow
Take this to heart as you are vain,
B*****d I despise you so

Make sure that each day that passes by,
Is one that you'll remember
Feel my rage and with a sigh,
You'll always know what you did occurred

So with the blood you took from me,
Recall the attack and know
Your conscience shall never be free,
As what you did was low

Pieces of your trapped ignorance,
They stay within your soul
Can't tell you how much I want this dance,
To end with your dead heart which is black as coal

Enter my world for just a moment,
Embrace what you put me threw
Take this space I have for rent,
You heartless one, you shrew

I just can't take the fear inside,
You won't be the one to take
I shall move on with my life long ride,
I live in spite of you for my sake.

Stacy,
Excellent use of rhyme and rythm in your structure. It's funny how people take and take and take from you, as you also give love and dedication and all the affection in your soul, until there is nothing left to give, then they leave you, angry and petulant. I think I can relate to your sentiment of how important and painful it is to go on despite someone who so spitefully used you for a meal ticket and a quick piece. Good job, ma'am; I hope your anger isn't directed solely at me.
One gripe - if I may - you misspelled 'through.'

Great work! Write it down! BZ

A powerful poem. You took me on a journey of living in your words. I like the ending. With all the B.S tossed at us. We must stay strong and go forward. A excellent poem. Thank you.

this is a great way to get your feelings out about something that has happened. I call writing life management. I keeps me in balance and this is a great way to move through a painful moment.
