MUCH BETTER

WHAT DID I DO? I'VE BEEN ASKING MYSELF
TO RECEIVE SUCH FALSE ALLEGATIONS
THAT ACTUALLY DEFINES ME;THE PAST THAT I ACTUALLY LEFT BEHIND TO NEVER RETURN


I SACRIFICED A LOT
TO FORGET MY PAST
BUT IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING
WHEN IT CAME FORCING IT WAY
THROUGH MY DOOR;[MY PRESENT]
LIKE A  LION READY TO POUNCE


I HAD BECOME SOMEONE
FROM NOBODY
ACHIEVED LOVE
WHEN  DESPERATELY NEEDED IT
AND SMILED LIKE I NEVER HAD

BUT IT SEEMS IT WAS ALL A TRAILER
AND REAL-LIFE CAME BANGING ITSELF ON MY DOOR
IN DISGUISE OF MY PAST 
WANTING TO DESTROY ME
TEAR ME PIECE BY PIECE
AS IF IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING
[THE NEW ME AND MY NEW MOTIVES]

YET STILL
AM STANDING
FIGHTING AGAINST IT
WITH LOTS OF COURAGE
KNOWING I MAY NOT BE STRONGER THAN IT
BUT AM MUCH BETTER THAN THE OLD ME..................................

WROTE IT WHILE I WAS IN MY CLASS BORED TO BITS ALTHOUGH NOT BLAMING THE TEACHER

I have a question: are the brackets part of the poem or just things you were thinking of adding in? If they're part of the poem, I think that's a pretty cool idea.

All capital letters???
I like these lines the best:

"I HAD BECOME SOMEONE
FROM NOBODY
ACHIEVED LOVE
WHEN DESPERATELY NEEDED IT
AND SMILED LIKE I NEVER HAD"
