Disbelief and desecration
No more abnegation
To hell with conformation
Let people talk
Say what they may
Believe all the lies
Who cares anyway
Disappointment and despair
Not a soul to care
Wounded beyond repair
Let people talk
Say I'm not neglected
Go on telling lies
I am already rejected
Been accused and refused
too many times, abused
I know I've been used
Let people talk
Call me a liar
Bringing me down
Is what they desire
Too bad it cannot be
I am too strong, you see
To let your lies get to me
Let people talk
See if I even care
When I go to heaven
I won't see liars there

i wish to ask one thing of you please read my works entitled dont judge me
i beleive that you will find that it is similar just not from such a nice point thank you for entering

While I think the poem has power and I like the flow, I think it needs to be divided up somehow. Line division or stanzas give power and let the reader stop for a second to think and breathe everything in. Thank you for entering.

Strong message. Best of luck!

I could picture a person standing and finally saying
"To hell with conformation
Let people talk
Say what they may
Believe all the lies
Who cares anyway"
I really enjoyed this poem. I could feel someone speaking out on gossip and letting go. I can definitely relate. -
This is a really good poem

The imagery here was vivid and very emotional..
Bravo.. Best of luck

I also came to a conclusion similar, considering everyone seems to spread rumours about me and call me all the names of the day and at the end of the day I just thought my true friends wouldn't believe this crap anyway... yup, you'll be one of the good ones there, hopefully I'll be there too with any luck.

WOW!..that just shocked me like woah, it literally screamed at me!..I especially liked the ending,
"Too bad it cannot be
I am too strong, you see
To let your lies get to me
Let people talk
See if I even care
When I go to heaven
I won't see liars there"
People talk crap all the time, but who cares. Ignore them, when you succeed one day they will be down in the ditch at hell.
AMAZING WRITE! I liked this one a lot.
Thank You for entering and Good Luck =D
