The Truth About Power

The Truth About Power

A Poem by Riley Justine
"

Spoiler: I have it all

"
I've been through
HELL.
But there is still life
in my eyes and blood
in my veins.

You didn't break
me, darling.

You will never have
that kind of power.

Instead you'll try 
to find me
in someone else.

An accurate depiction of how people of this nature can move! For better or for worse, what they didn't break in you, they'll seek to either break elsewhere, or else grab onto in regret. Very forward and direct, but that adds to the nature of the writing! Good write, Riley!
