This is great. it shows that have been able to confront your despair and that you have learn to look at your scars as experience so that you will not be wounded the same way ever again. Nice job!

I really liked the concept of this piece. I loved the part 'I don't need a man to make me proud of myself.' That is so very true, and that realization is going to make you a very strong woman. My only advise on this piece is to put it into a different format, this looks more like a paragraph then a poem. But I loved everything else. A very strong piece and yet a very harsh realization. Love it! 5/5
