Victim to this pressure
Accustom to this lecture
This torture
It’s breaking me alive
This yelling is burning
Constantly
Never learning
From the mistakes
You pretend you
Never made
You’re taking everything
But you’re own fall
I’ll crawling across the floor
Paralyzed by your inconstancy
You’re screaming profanity
This insanity is solving nothing
You have nothing to gain
But broken trust and fractured promises
I’m comfortable in these lies
You’ve told a thousand times
I’m comfortable in this screaming
That depreciates the silence
My dignity is conformed to
And I'll live my life like this
In ruins
for you

My favorite part in the whole piece, I haven't really been poetic lately, and I love when other people's work inspire me to write...now if only I can find something (or someone) to write about...hmmm... -Jena

oh my... this is amazing. really it is. everything you've expressed and the words you used, the way you constructed it... i love it. life gets rough sometimes and we feel weak. the only way to get stronger is to carry on. i don't know what else to say, but this is amazing
