I will make it go away
Can't be here no more
I have fought in every way
That I know how
Now I see the times they change
I no longer have the choice not to go
Been bleeding too long
I refuse to live this way anymore
I ate your shit for years
Let you know all of my fears
I am done being used
These feelings will be gone
I once needed you to feel alive
You sucked the life right out of me
You ruined me long ago
But you will not ruin our child

"I once needed you to feel alive
You sucked the life right out of me
You ruined me long ago
But you will not ruin our child" is my favorite part good luck -
I love the way you incorporated the Korn lyrics, I love Korn!
I like corn too, haha!
it was very good. I loved it. And seriously I never would have noticed that those lyrics were in there. I have a few poems with Nirvana lyrics in them, but i doubt many would notice.
Bravo! -
Wow - I never would have guessed there were lyrics in this! (You know I'm not a huge Korn fan lol) The flow is perfect...the lines fit so well into your words, I had guessed them as your own! Great job!
-
Pretty cool...

Really good emotion here. You write very well. I could feel the words as I read them. It's a very sad piece. I also want to thank you for commenting on my poem. The man was dear to my heart and really taught me alot. I haven't known very many men that were good men, he was one of the few. I'll miss him terribly. Once again, I liked your poem. It's hard to really get emotion out into words and you did well with this! ~Melissa

And if I may say-HELL YEAH. I love the last line of this peice. I've said the same thing to someone about my boy. Great job on this obvious why you won a trophy, it's great. I like the idea of working lines from songs into a poem. I've done that once or twice.

Well.. You know this hit me hard.... Beautiful write and nice blend with music and emotions... It's amazing how our children can bring us such power and weaknesses all at the same time.. *sigh* well done.

Empowering!
Awesome job. I really enjoyed this poem, and your skill shows... taking lines from a song and incorporating it; and yet it really shines through as if it were completely original - (not to say that it isn't original, because it is) but what I'm trying to say is that it totally flows and evokes powerful emotions from the reader. Kudos!
-
I really like this one. Damn right. Standing up and taking charge for the good of the child. Dont let anything not even his booze ridden ass hurt that kid. Good job.
