Solitude

This stupid girl,

Is learning now,

congratulations,

take a bow,

you drove me to darkness,

but now I know how,

how it hurts to be betrayed,

over and over again,

I’m not going to replay,

This game is not meant for me,

These knives in my back are paralyzing,

But through this pain I see,

Solitude is the best path,

For the scarred heart in me.

Author's Note

it may not be the best, but I write to vent. Feedback appreciated!

"Solitude is the best path,
For the scarred heart in me."
Solitude is good sometimes. False words and naysayers leave us weak and doubtful. Better to seek your own place and path. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I wouldn't want to say I greatly enjoyed this if, and when it does seem, to come from a dark chapter in your life. Lol those are my thoughts

[chaotic katie]

Thank you so much for the feedback! When i wrote this i was at a point in my life where i was being betrayed by the people i thought would never do such things. I was at that point of anger and desperation where i tried my best to shut everyone out so that i wouldn't get hurt again.

[Gedalya]

Don't want to think about it. Don't want to hear about it. Don't want to talk about it. One of these moments? Yeah, I've had plenty of them. I can relate very much so. Well, as with all things, at least you created something out of the antagonism.

[chaotic katie]

Exactly, i see it as taking all the broken peices and making something new. Poetry was one of my main ways of venting.

[Gedalya]

Yeah, the least thing you want to do is suppress it like above. Sometimes those blocks only hinder a person. Pain is a tool, use it well.

[chaotic katie]

A lesson i've learned well

[stars are far]

That showed that you are strong..and no matter what and how much you feel down ..dont make anyone notice this pain..except someone that you really trust they won;t hurt you.
well done :)

I often find that the pieces of writing I'm most proud of are the ones where I've had a good, healthy vent- never underestimate a vent ;) I think it's worked really well for you too because I really liked this piece... Your choice of words and the tone you used all helped to create a sorrowful yet really captivating poem... Not to mention that the craving for solitude in life is a feeling I'm sure everyone experiences in their life- very easy to relate to... I'm sure many people could benefit from reading this, well done :)

You are most welcome,dear friend.:)
How is life at this moment?

[chaotic katie]

Well no more venting poems in a while so that says something. :) To answer the question directly, I've been doing very well although very busy with the co-authors i'm doing with my boyfriend (Kent and Katie's co-authored stories on here if you are ever interested in reading them.)

[zainul]

I am very glad to know that you have a busy yet peaceful life now.
I will read them soon.

We all have those moments when we sway back and forth between running and fighting. It's hard when it comes to the heart, either ours or people we know. I always tell myself to FIGHT! I figure...what the hay! Either i'll get what I feel I deserve, or I find out what I deserve. Eitherway... I learn something.

This is definitely a great poem about betrayal and the horrifying occasion of getting burned when you trust others! Sad thing is how there are others who do love playing games with people's hearts and emotions, deriving a sick pleasure from inflicting pain.
