2am Thoughts Poem by Kim Aouad

2am Thoughts

Rating: 4.0


Life ripped me apart, ripped away from me the only defense I sheltered behind. Life threw me overboard and used me as shark bait. Life mocked me and called me names, then laughed in my face after kicking me in the core.... But here I am - as strong as I've ever been, ready to fight back, and I owe it all to the amalgamation of different battles outside the battlefield. Life, follow me to the ring, where I'll show you who the master of me really is.

You can do it Kim! These lines struck me as very significant: '/But here I am - as strong as I've ever been, ready to fight back, and I owe it all to the amalgamation of different battles outside the battlefield.'/ We have many experiences in our life, in a literal and a figurative battlefield. But in the end, we must all choose whether we can be our own master. Thanks for sharing your strong poem Kim.

'' But here I am - as strong as I've ever been, ready to fight back '' this is the way you, the young generation, can change a world we - the old one - have almost destroyed.. Thanks for sharing, Kim Blessings
