4:00am, mtn Dew, and bad decisions
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My dear friend, this poem packs a punch despite its deceptively simple appearance. I love how you\'ve captured the loneliness and desperation of those late-night/early-morning hours. Been there and felt that. The line \'but isn\'t that / the same?\' is particularly poignant, highlighting the blurred lines between genuine connection and physical presence/comfort. Your words resonate deeply, reminding me of similar experiences with insomnia and the search for connection. I very much appreciate this piece, NinjaGirl.🌹👏

This is deeper than the first glance does tell. Every one wants something and is that the same? Body, mind, money or your heart what is it you value? All in a point of view. A most thought provoking poem that bears the cynacism of age and the innocense of youth

Overwhelmed it is easy to throw in the towel and give up. Persistence is the best choice.

young me mirage
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Wow, this is tragically sad and profoundly powerful. It shows how victims of abuse end up blaming themselves and how the abuse follows them forever. I am so sorry this is your experience and so thankful you are giving it voice. By doing that you may not be breaking your abuser...but you are doing something far more powerful...getting that out of you in verse and being a voice for the voiceless...just as you were voiceless at one time. No more. And no, you are not letting your younger self down...in fact, you are showing her what resilience you have to face unthinkable horror and still to have not lost your voice. It doesn\'t take the abuse away, but why abuse yourself with unnecessary guilt? ❤️🩹 Anyway, well done, my friend! A beautiful, albeit tragic, piece of poetry. A poem of strength, if you ask me. 🌹👏

death

This is a relatable poem. Nice
I tried to commit suicide last year when I was very desperate, but death refused to kill me. I had to bite the bullet and now life goes on.

Ooh...\"losing myself to remember who I am\". 🤯 There you go with your master Ninja skills, stealthily sneaking that last line in at the end and taking the meaning of the poem to whole new levels. TOTAL NINJA MOVE...just saying, 🤣 This, my friend, is a hauntingly brilliant and profound write that deals with love, loss, and rediscovering who one is apart from another person. Moving from co-dependence to independence, perhaps?. Seriously. It is a wonderful example of how so much can be said in so few words. Brava! 🌹👏

Dark and sad it speaks of uncertainty and a need to be oneself. To find oneself one must loose oneself. A deep poem with a haunting quality.

Right there with you, and I agree with Soren...love the Christmas Tree-esque shape of this poem. Great job, my friend! You are expressing something a lot of people feel during this time! 🌹👏

Love the shape of the poem that looks like a Christmas tree and the mention of the holidays so seasonal. With the holidays comes the temptation of foods but we all are in control of our choices and what ever they are know that it was your choice so own it and be happy with it. Nicely done

swimming through sand
sorenbarrett said:
They say that if one finds oneself in quicksand one should swim. Very nicely written this poem of frustration and pain. I can feel it in the words and the effort as if walking into the face of a hurricane. It is this feeling that I get from it that makes it a work of art

revenge

Revenge is a very short lived high, then normally a life time of regret. I like the 2 sides of your poem it is well written, take care

revenge
Tristan Robert Lange said:
I understand this. My trauma is for sure different than yours...but I GET THIS. In fact, I wrote a poem at least 16 years ago about someone...toward someone...I was abused by. Not physical abuse...but verbal, emotional and psychological. The poem\'s title is Nothing to Me. I have contemplated publishing it, but have hesitated it because it is really raw and I flirt with the idea of revenge in it...but come to the same conclusion you do in this poem. Anyway. Thank you for your vulnerability, your raw emotions and for being a voice for the voiceless. ❤️🩹

Freedom of speech is a beautiful thing
It should not be held in chains
Speak from your heart and soul
Speak what\'s on your mind

It is the message in this poem that stands out. Yet for it to stand out it must have been said in such a way as to gain attention, hold it and make sense and this did. Early in life one has the choice to stand up for what one believes or go with the flow, most choose the flow. Those that stand up are subjected to ridicule, osterized, and at time punished. Yet in the long run they are the ones that make a difference and are respected. The coice is not easy. A very important write and well expressed.

A poem highlighting a serious issue, that probably there is never such a thing as freedom of speech, because someone will always slap you down. My view is everyone should be and be allowed to be true to themselves. I echo Tristan thoughts about liking the poem, not because of your frustration, but i like the issues it raises, Thank you
