The Battle is Won

by ShootingStar179   Nov 11, 2006


There were so many nights I sat in this chair,
I would think of you,
My thoughts were painful but I would try not to care.

It was hard but I got through,
I never knew the emotion went away,
I don't love you.

Never again will I be afraid you hate me,
I don't need you to hold me back,
You're so ignorant you can't see.

I almost killed myself climbing above the sadness to the sun,
I'm there basking in the light,
The battle over you is won.

    This was a good poem, however i felt like it lacked a little bit of something in between. I would have loved more descriptions, because it would have been very swell. 4/5 [:

    I liked this.
    I think it could be a little longer, have more emotion in it and some imagery.
    But the meaning behind it and the pain was very clear and I liked the rhyme scheme and wording. 4/5

    This was good, but as LoveLustTragedy said, it could use a little bit of work. The only real problem I had with it was the ending. It made sense and everything, but "You'll hit the floor." Just seems a little forced, as if you were just looking for a word to rhyme. I think you could have chosen something better.

    However, this was a good try. Nice work.
