Proud to be What You Hate
by Leah G. (Age: 15)
copyright 10-09-2007


Age Rating: 7 to 127

 
I’ve finally took the step
Far away from my past.
All bad memories I’ve kept,
But I am free at last.

I know that you are mad at me-
It’s not that hard to see.
Because I have grown to be
Someone confident and free.

I’ve heard all the rumors.
Yes, I am aware-
They’re rapidly growing tumors,
But I really don’t care.

I’ll be the nicer person
And not strike back at you,
For then problems would worsen-
For I’d be guilty too.

We are as diverse as night and day-
But in the end, I prevail.
So now you want to push me away.
You’re so pathetic, scared, and frail.

Are you bothered that you aren’t getting
The attention you hope you’d gain?
I don’t waste my time on fretting-
I always rid myself of pain.

I’m apathetic about my reputation-
I don’t waste time on people like you.
If only I could make you see,
That you could be content too.

I could care less about the harm
That you are causing me.
I won’t look surprised or alarmed,
Because that’s what you want to see.

This is quite a heroic poem. Having the strength of character to rise above wanting revenge on someone who did you wrong is something not all people have. I am among those lacking it, but maybe some day that will change. For now I will content myself with reviewing this poem and trying to learn something from it.

As the others before me have said, this is something anyone can identify with. This is perhaps its greatest strength, but it is not a slouch in the technical areas either. For all its uplifting message, I cannot help but get the impression that there is still lingering bitterness. Again, anyone can understand that, but the way you express it is extraordinary. The way you rhymed and still got your point across is impressive to anyone, let alone a non-poet such as myself.

Overall you did well. The style of it makes me wonder if you had an experience that compelled you to write this poem. I find that style of poetry to be among the most powerful known to man. Good work.

Awesome peom!!! It ryhmed beautifully, and held a bitterness in it I could feel as I read. What you are saying in the peom is good too! The right choice is to move on, and not become like the person who has donr so much wrong. Amazing write!

Hi! ^-^ Told you I'd comment! Okay so anyway...
I didn't completely understand this poem, but that's typical of me. But I liked it anyway. You used some words I don't know, so that's why I didn't get it. But from the words I do know, no spelling mistakes! Thank StarClan for spell checkers! Okay, I'm getting really off topic today! Ignore my random ranting! Great poem! I'm going to tell my friend who just recently joined, about you! Bye!

Ah, this poem is pretty good. I like the rhyming techniques and how you conveyed your feelings for the readers. Though it is kinda vague on who you're writing to, which is a good technique to pique the audience's interest. Thanks for the good read!

I'm not sure if this is a personal experience or not, but I think we all can relate. Although you don't make any spiritual references in this poem, it makes me think of a verse in a gospel song entitled "Faithful" that goes:

I'm reaping the harvest God promised me
take back what the devil stole me,
and I rejoice TODAY,
for I shall recover it all

It reminds of your poem in sense that it too ENPOWERS, and I definitely think the same sort of power comes through in your voice here. It's as though you are indeed laughing at loud saying "in your face."

The only thing I would say is just watch the rhyme; it got a bit crowded in places.

Great Job!

Hah...is this one of those love poems that is to the person you care about, but isn't really a love poem? *anime sweatdrop* Skaata cakes, I'm being weird tonight.

Zanyway, good work on this piece! It's a little vague, so I'm not entirely sure if you wrote it from your own experience or not. It doesn't stand out to me much, but you still had good flow. The has a solid structure and good topic. Keep it comin'.

A relatively straight-forward presentation of what I felt to be a separation. I expected some of the intensity of the title to be reflected in the writing, but I didn't see it. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. There is a mystery in the background, a tale half-told, an image that almost presents itself but not quite. I like that, but a little more would have been nice, too.
Opening, development and ending are all well done. Word choice for the quietness of the piece is good. Maybe it's just me. I wanted something abrasive, a conflict, something like that. Oh well....I think the very first line needs to be brought into agreement. Verb/tense. You'll see it. Other than that, I couldn't find anything technically wrong to complain about. lol Wouldn't complain anyway. I like your writings, you know that. And I expect I'll comment on each one, maybe not all tonight but they won't escape the attention of my "salty pen." LOL It's a nice piece. Thank you ^^
