Battle

by David   Mar 9, 2007


Why fight the battle
And why fight the pain
Cause I just shake and rattle
You are driving me insane!

Your words so hurtful
Like stabbings in the back
I was played as the fool
For I somehow did lack

The necessities of love
And the words to make you see
That we were perfect together
Just you and me.

So I sit back and wonder
How life could have been
I was a blind man
Her hate was buried underneath, unseen

So I crawl away,
All bloodied and scratched
Your words cut deeper
Yet you will never know...

I am silently tearing within
As each word digs more
Yet dont think it is a sin
My body is battling itself
I am at war!

For how do I show you?
And what do I have to give
That you were my fortress,
You made me live......

    Wow.. so emotional.. great job. The flow is wonderful, and I like how you create visual interest with the 6th stanza being a line longer. Flow and rythmn are wonderful, as usual! You have some awesome talent, keep up the good work! 5/5
    Much Love,

    This is really quite good David. If this is about what you were feeling I think we need to talk. But this is really well written, the flow was good and it told the story well with emotion. And congratulations for getting on the front page! I'm so happy hehe. Anyway, great poem. 5/5

    A very frustrating poem.
    Expressive in every way.
    Sad yet spiced with anger.
    Almost perfect rhyme but still could use some work.

    A very good poem.
    You interrupt the flow ones, but that's not very disturbing.
    Keep it up.
