No More Crap

I'm not going down 
without a fight 
You can do what you want 
try as hard as you like 

Makes no difference to me
I'm used to life's pain 
Knock me down 
I'll just get up again 

You think cause I'm a girl 
you can push me around 
Well you'd better watch out 
or you'll hit the ground

I ain't no p***y 
no weak little girl 
I've seen it all 
been through the fires of hell 

So you'd better think twice 
before picking on me 
Cause I ain't as sweet 
as I used to be 

I've been battered and bruised 
and treated like dirt 
Stomped on and spat on 
left broken and hurt 

But those days are over
ain't no doubt about that 
Now I've made up my mind 
to take no more crap 

So don't threaten me 
or you'll  be risking your life 
Cause I ain't going down 
without a massive fight

Oh this is just amazing, Coralann...Very intense, fiery anger unleashing through
The depths of your soul! I'm at this place in my life right now, could very much
Relate to this poem.

Very accurate description of when one has reached
their limit, due to any kind of abuse, betrayal, after a while, you're left with no choice but to
Strike back, even if it's by silence, confrontation, or just cutting them out of your life
For good.

This write, gives us, the readers, a glimpse into your strength, belief
In yourself...a true survivor, kudos to you!

Back to this poem, brilliant use of rhyming scheme, and lyrical flow,
I had Megadeth echoing in my head while reading this.

Thanks for sharing, I personally found it inspiring and
I'm truly sorry that you are or were in this place.

Sends you positive energy and light! 100/100 (favs)

so sad for Life to extract such an intense outpouring...but there is a point and when reached, strength and force are required....well put C......sad to read, but well put,

Peace,
R

[Carolann Dowsett]

Thank you. Yes just the way life is I guess

[Dispersus]

you're welcome

uhmmmm, no, I think it is the way Life can be at times, but not the way it is...but more importantly is, when pressure is applied, there is an appropriate return of pressure and removal of the irritant

[Carolann Dowsett]

Yes removing the irritant is always a good thing

[Dispersus]

✔ here's to an irritant free Life

[Carolann Dowsett]

Thank you

[Ees]

Love it!
It is tough and hard and I love seeing that edge in poetry!
It's easy to follow and read and understand and to identify with. Those are all things that I believe make for a great piece of work.
Good job!

[Carolann Dowsett]

This should be the battle-cry for all women who have had enough of
bad relationships and only thought of as second class citizens... Absolutely
a profound piece!
