Why does something drastic have to happen in order for there to be change?

I want you

To feel pain

Regret

Heartache

I want you

To suffer

You don’t realize

The sorrow you cause

You don’t realize

The feelings you hurt

You are the reason

For the anger

That burns within me

You are the reason

For these suicidal thoughts

I want you to undergo

What you put me through

I need you to understand

A life without me here

I’m sure

You’ll shed a million tears

And pray to God for strength

Yet you won’t feel

A single thing

If nothing ever occurs

Now you’ve got me

Being pulled

From left to right

From death to life

I want you

To feel distress

But I refuse

To suffer for you

In other words

You're not worth

Rotting in hell

Update:

Yeah I guess you could say that...

Update 2:

Yeah I'm pretty pissed at the moment. And just to let everyone know, it's not about anything you guys know about---totally different... and extremely more angering...

Update 3:

Tori: Can't... and don't email me right now, please... ):

Update 4:

Tori: Can't talk about it... he monitors these emails, too so just don't talk about anything...

Update 5:

Tori: It's not 'safe' to talk about him during the emails because he monitors them BUT as soon as I can get Gmail back, I'll let you know... atleast when I click delete in that, it actually goes away...

Everyone: Thanks guys (((HUGS)))... I don't want anyone to think I'm being physically abused... emotionally, yes... there's a lot of screaming, fighting, throwing things, and nights that seem really long at my house... we're a family of believers and when in a tough situation we pray but my dad has a temper... he never touches us but he curses, swears, screams, throws things, and he's got ALL the power in the world by his side, it seems. he decides where my mom goes and it's like he has no self-control... it scares me at times and at others, i just wanna scream back--that's how i lose things like facebook, gmail, and other things... i won't say anymore because i gotta log off soon but yeah, just to let everyone know... thank you...

    Hi. I feel so bad for you. what ever the problem is, give it to the Lord in prayer, and try to calm down. This is a powerful poem i see a sense of crying out and to much pain. Things are going to get better, keep your hope and faith in God's, He will fix it. Just be still and stand. I wish you well.

    this is a very popular subject matter.. and you're successfully made it your own. That is something i really love running across; better than the rest on the popular subjects.

    i agree with the others in saying that the beginning and the ending are a lot stronger than the middle is, and i also feel that i should say you're greatly improved as a poet :')

    I'm sorry you have to feel like that. I've had times in my life where I've felt trapped and alone in situations. Those are the times that I feel disconnected from others and I start having suicidal thoughts. It's not a good place to be, and I wouldn't want anyone to go through that kind of thing, especially someone like you, who can create such honest and creative poetry. I hope you'll feel better.

  • Well it seems

    that the soap opera of Yap does not take top billing in my house anymore

    I am far too busy to be here that much.

    This poem is an angst poem and as such It has much strength,

    I think it is pretty good but as with much things written in anger it may not look as good when we calm down.

    now, what to do about my sore thumb, ?

    You've either advanced in your ability to write about things you're only imagining, which is the mark of a true poet, or you've advanced in your ability to get really pi**ed off and show it.

    I think it starts and ends particularly strongly. The middle's not quite as powerful to me.

    OK. some people don not display their potentials till they get pis-ed off. it is good.. while u r at it, try to write another poem from another point of view.

  • 1 decade ago

    That is a torrent of anger young lady and I hear it loud and clear. Perhaps whoever has generated this write from you needs to be aware of those feelings!

    Really good and I think funny I no its not meant to be funny :) it does not celebrate the power of words

    but the power of women .... just as powerful as words if you no what I talking about .
