I've been gone for a while. How's everyone? This poem's just about jealously and anger. Just everything thrown into one. Wrote it last night...Somehow it just doesn't feel finished...like it needs more...ehh if anyone can, the rhyme scheme is easy, help me finish it off with a good ending...

Rising Above the Scars -

An emotion scar
painfully taken in.
It goes to show
that I let you win.

Get the best of me &
throw me away.
You sit and laugh
as I rot and decay.

The scars on the inside
are hidden within.
The ones on the outside
are from letting you win.

I must take control,
I'm dying, you see!
Can't let you decide
what should happen to me.

I'm getting better now
but no thanks to you.
By hurting myself,
it was the right thing to do

That emotion scar
is fading away.
And I become stronger
Almost everyday...

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Ooh... nice job. Good flow, due to the short lines. And the rhyme helped a lot.

I thought you did well with this one. Very nice. The pain hurts, I know this pain all too well.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

"Clipped wing
You didn't win
I'm here to tell you
About my thick skin"

How's that? It really is hard to write for other people's poems, but I related to this one very well. Sometimes a little anger is a good thing.
Good job

Greater than being shore to ocean
Holding the curve of one position
Counting an endless repetition"

You did good on this one
Though i feel like it lacks emotion
why? I don't know
It must be me  
thanks for sharing
