You

You

A Poem by Olive Belikov
"

its short but i like it :)

"
Listen to me now
as I speak these words
into the bottomless, black, obis
that is your heart.
YOU,
someone that I trusted,
YOU,
someone I believed in
tried to cut me down to nothing.
YOU
tried to break my bones
and cut my strings.
But I am here to tell you now...

YOU
Failed.

It is short, but it is empowering. Always prefer a character with the ability to be independant or strong enough not to cry over a footstep in the wrong direction. :) Thanks. :)

A short write and to the point. A good lesson in this poem. Don't ever let someone make you feel less than who you truly are, and reduce you to thinking you cannot be all that you strive to be. Life can be difficult and you're going to run into people and situations that test your resolve, staying positive and true to who you are will get you through a great deal of pain. It'll hurt for a while, but don't ever be less than you for anyone... even if they don't like it. Great write with a message.
