Letting myself fall

by paige   Mar 30, 2010


I dont want to defend myself anymore
Im sick of trying
Im sick of fightning

Im letting go of myself
Im letting myself fall
Im letting myself hurt

Im sick of trying to fix things
If something breaks
I wont try to mend it anymore

I'll take the blows
Hit me
I'll take the pain
Hurt me

I dont care
If I die in 5 minutes
I dont care
I just dont care

    *this stanza is great! love that you opened the poem this way. im sure lots of readers will be able to relate! lots of pain in 3 lines.

    Im letting go of myself
    Im letting myself fall
    Im letting myself hurt

    *nice repetition here of the im letting. i like the way you show your hurt instead of telling. it's so much better to let the reader see it.

    Im sick of trying to fix things
    If something breaks
    I wont try to mend it anymore

    I'll take the blows
    Hit me
    I'll take the pain
    Hurt me

    * these stanzas are absolutely perfect! a feeling of giving up, of no longer caring is expressed so well. giving in to the pain...the 2nd stanza hurts to read but its so good!!

    I dont care
    If I die in 5 minutes
    I dont care
    I just dont carel

    *great way to end this piece strongly! repetition of i dont care is nice. love when you say in 5 minutes, is very dramatic and adds great imagery to the poem. the last line, should say "care" not "carel" thats the only error ;)

    great job, one of your best! 5/5 katie
