Stabbing pain set on ignore,
From hips all around down to the floor.
Take this will and bear it bitten,
Painful wrenching, tears they glisten.
Body rages inside a shell,
Physical pain sounds a bell.
Like some hand, wild in punch,
Gasped in pain, teeth and tongue crunch.
Lower back in teasing grip,
Then to front the pain does slip.
Testing teasing physical pain,
As faster tears take their gain.
Tear from inside, gasping now,
Pain and ache, the body bows.
Curling, fisting, into a ball,
No one here to heed the call.

you do it pretty well. . . it flows pretty good except for "tongue and teeth crunch". . . perhaps one or the other???

still a great poem though. . .

Yep, you can do this---sometimes an outpouring of anger is therapeutic...but stick to poetry...I've got a fractured toe to prove that it is a healthy alternative to kicking walls. I enjoyed this...

Jenn, Jenn, Jenn
What would we do without your pen?

Seems you've got this rhymin to an art.
Oh, how, oh, how did you get so smart?

*grins*

Peekaboo, just poppin in for a few minutes to check on ya.  I'm glad to see that you are still doing good.  The summer is flying by a tid bit too fast for me.  I'm working full time, and I picked up a new hobby that's an hour every evening, plus trying to keep my social life alive in the evenings.  I think I'm doing a pretty good job so far.  Busy busy busy flying summer.  Hope to talk to you soon.

ps:  sven is right about that one line...*wink*

Very interesting writing to say the least!

I liked this one very much.

You seem to have an idea of what you want to do with your work.  It shows.  Keep it up.
