A million scars.

This poem was originally made to say "You can push me around, but I'm staying strong" kind of thing... But it didn't turn out that way, lol! Stay strong, guys! <3

 

Throw me to the floor.

Chain me to walls.

Leave me in the cold..

As the snow falls.

 

Leave me in the rain,

To drown in my tears.

Make me suffer.

Find out all of my fears.

 

You’ve already left a million.

A million scars.

You’ve wrecked everything.

Everything that was ours.

 

Our memories …

Our dreams.

I hope you’re happy.

Although, everything is never as it seems.

 

So, yell at me to not cry.

Force me to go to sleep.

But remember, you can’t rewind time;

The scars are already too deep.

 

So go right ahead.

Shove me to the ground.

Make me bow.

But remember, one day, I might not be around.

 

Around to love,

Around to care,

Around to dream,

Can you guess where?

 

I’ll be right next to God.

Smiling and enjoying each and every day…

Me.

That’s the price that you had to pay.

This really speaks to a lot of people. But I will admit that the last few lines (specifically the reference to God) made me a bit uncomfortable. But it was a beautiful poem, and I hope that you're not going through this, and if you had, I hope it's over. :)

Thank you so much! :)

I can hear the song along rhythmic thrumming of guitar chords as painful as the words. Good work keeping the melody crisp and clear.

Yet I felt the poem was somewhat cheapened by it's lake of symbolism and/or metaphoric references.

Keep up the good work!

I admire the strength posed in this one. Instead of self-woe, you express sincere pain yet keep in tune with a higher power only to profess your victory in the end. It's as if you knew one way or another, that you'd win all along.

Wow, this speaks out to lots of people. It's weird, how tons of people can suffer for the same thing, yet they feel like the only ones. Curious, isn't it? You did a great job with this poem. I really like it :)

[Stay strong! :)]

Oh my gosh! Yes, that it very weird and so true! But I think people think about it that way because they think no one will ever truly understand the situation... Like if someone says something mean to you, and you try to tell someone else... It doesn't usually make sense or it does, but they really listen..... Lol, does that make sense?

[Stay strong! :)]

Oh, and thank you so much! :)

[Stay strong! :)]

*doesn't really make sense.... Sorry about that

[Felecia]

That's alright! aha, it makes sense and you're welcome

[Kelsey]

Wow. This is me and my story in a poem that wasn't even written by me. You did an absolutely amazing job.

[Stay strong! :)]

[LoveDens]

Nice!

[Stay strong! :)]

Thank you a million times! :D lol. :)

Wow, this is really well done. I like how it kind of has a happy ending but doesn't. There's two ways the reader can take it. Though, the way of the subject dying on her own would make sense with the 'God' line. Considering, if someone commits suicide that they do not end up in Heaven. My apologies for pointing that out. However, the meaning behind it is still very strong and I rather enjoyed this poem quite a lot. Please keep up the great work.

I can relate to this and I really like it :) Keep writing...

[Stay strong! :)]

Thank youuu! :D
