You damaged my world
With your angry jealous
Heart, so full of bitterness
That you no longer
Feel love at all.
You disarranged my
Orderly world where I
Lived in peace and quiet.
You ripped it apart
With your sharp knife
Made of bitterness.
And you will die alone,
Nursing your sad heart,
Blaming others and
Refusing to see
That you destroyed yourself
From within.
Hi Scarlett - Why do we cause each other such pain? I'm pondering it in my new poem, 'It's Just Blood'. A lot of emotional release here! Good job in redirecting it back. Your new friend - Cheryl
Strong writing here Scarlett. Reminds me of Blake's Poison Tree. Nothing like a good rant to help let go of rage. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxx
Such raw pain and anger...but wisdom in the last line when you realise it is himself he has really destroyed. Hugs Anna xxx
It sounds like a bad parent or partner to me. Wen they go bad, something awful takes charge of them. Hellbound is a good word. Her's something I heard yesterday, on the other hand. 'Bitterness is poison you swallow yourself hoping it will kill the other person.' Also: 'Resentment is like renting out a room in your head to your worst enemy.'

I would like to translate this poem
mystical poem! i could not figure out whether the killer was within you (admiting some situations and idenftifying always help) or that the poem was for another person that had such a terrible impact on you. either way fine work! HBH
