Don't Take My Hand

by Fighter (Ariane L.)   Aug 18, 2005


You say you understand, but you really don't.
You have no idea of the pain I feel.
You have no idea of the rivers I've cried.
You don't know about all the anger I hold inside.

I know you want to help me, but please, don't.
The only way I can be saved, is by me.
I must choose to save myself.
I must choose to let go of the pain and the anger.

So please, stop trying to take my hand.
I'm afraid you may just let it go.
I need to be strong, so I can start to forget.
So please, stop trying to take my hand.
I have to make it on my own.

    Outstanding poem. The title surprised me, because most people want someone to take their hand. But the way you used it was perfect. Determined to make it on your own. Great job!

    Thankyou for the comment, you don't know how much that ment to me. I've never had someone tell me Im talented, actually my teachers seem to think my stuff isnt even worthy or a 65:P but great work on your poem if these are your true feelings you got them across but may I say its not good to distance your self to far.
