It's your two faced ways. It's the mean things you say. It's the bull crap you put me through everyday. It's the lies that you spew. It's the hate that you spread. It's all of the hurtful things that you've said. Its the names I was called. Its the tears that I've cried. It's all of the feeling I have hidden inside. But now your gone and I don't shed a tear because life is much better since you are not here.

@Warren Mark Thank you I find I'm able to heal better when I write it down this poem I actually made about a friend who was in an abusive relationship
Writing Poetry - Natural skill or learnt …. ?
A question I’ve been asked many times… Like everything in life, some take to it with little effort whilst others have to work much harder to achieve it. I think I fit into the category of little effort personally. Lines of poetry manifest in my head constantly. Lying in bed, driving, after watching a movie or hearing a song. Often from witnessing an emotional situation. my trouble tends to be overload, I have lines of verses started but not finished in my phone, iPad, laptop and anywhere else I’ve put them down in order to go back to and not ! It suits me though because often I find a couple of lines, months or even years later and suddenly I’ll have the motivation to complete it. The real point here though is - Does it matter ? Of course not. What matters is that you write something you like. I don’t think it should ever be about pleasing the masses or looking for likes. Write because you want to, Unless it’s your job, who cares. I’ve so much work that’s never even seen the light of day - but that’s the point. I write it for me and I’d encourage everyone to write for themselves too. It’s great to want to grow and develop , but ultimately, when your feel pressured because writing something has stopped being a passion and started to be a chore - then it’s time to remind yourself why you do it ✨

Mine are just natural skills that come from my feelings usually
Speak Up
Stand up for the weak and speak up for the quiet. When people are bullied they are forced to hide it. They are scared and afraid and they want to speak up. But they know if they do that they might get beat up. They suffer in silence and don't say a word. They're so close to suicide because their feelings are hurts. By the time we figure it out it's already too late. Another persons life has been taken away. Stand up for the weak they can't do this alone. And speak up for the quiet because they can't speak on their own

@Karen Hamilton I absolutely agree and as someone who knows first hand what it's liked to be bullied I know that people are scared to say anything in fear that it will get worse and it's sad

I'm so sorry to hear that but I agree I much rather be bullied than become a bully too they use to make fun of the gaps in my teeth and would call me mean names and actually choked me I mean obviously I'm okay but back then I didn't want to go to school at all or even out of the house I get scared for my daughter everyday thinking if she gets bullied she can't tell me because she has a speech delay

I made this poem in 2011 it's called Fall. Pumpkin spice lattes and hooded shirts. Witches and scarecrows and Halloween skirts. Goblins and monsters that scare you at night. Black cats and ghost that will give you a fright. Costumes and candy and Halloween cheer. This is by far the best time of the year. _____________________________________ This one is called Devyn I made it like 2 weeks ago There will be a day where I'm not by your side. And when that day comes I don't want you to cry. Just remember that I love you and I am always in your heart. And As long as you carry my memory with you we will never be apart. I'm writing you this poem just to let you know that even when I'm gone You will never be alone. You are strong. You are beautiful. And You are very smart. And the best thing about you is you've always had a good heart. The only thing I ask is that you never change your ways. Because you've always been perfect in every single way. I want you to be happy like you were when I was alive. Please don't let the fact that I'm gone ruin your whole life. I want you to be happy like your happy now. The one thing I always hated was when I sometimes made you frown. You are not only my life You are my world too. I've never loved anyone as much as I loved you. You are outstanding. And amazing. And sometimes sassy too. Those are one of many things I've always loved about you. So I want you to keep this poem and hold it close to your heart. So that way when you miss me you won't completely fall apart. Please do not cry please don't be sad. I promise I'm okay I may have left th is world but I am now in a better place.

@Karen Hamilton thank you I appreciate that It's actually something I'm planning to eventually give my daughter
Who wants to work a piece ?
Maybe a previous write that doesn't quite hit the mark for you, or doesn't flow the way you would like it ? if you would like to work with me on something just let me know. That's why this community is here. 😁

I have a piece it's not that great but It's mainly because it's hard to put the words into place if that makes sense
