My face falls
as i read the stinging
words of rejection.

Directs insults, personalised
attacks.
Putting down my looks,
and my talents..
or lack there of.

But your words that try
to break me down.
Make me want to crawl
into my cave of despair,
and hide away my face.
Yes those words,
I will not let them work.

I will not let you break me down.
Because that is your objective.
I will not give you the power
and the pleasure, to know that
your more than likely, jealous
comments, have got to me.

You project your insecurities,
onto people, whom intimidate you.
I never tried to intimidate you,
but if you must use me as someone
to pour all the things you hate about
yourself onto me, then
go forth and do so.
for i will not let you affect me.

And i say that over and over, inside my
head.
While the tears roll down my cheeks.

Pride is holding your head up, when everyone else has their's lowered. Courage is what makes you do it.

I think that if you would say what you're trying to say without actually saying it it would sound better. Like dance around the idea. And play with it more. Is a cool idea though. And the tear thing was kinda cool.

this is soo beautiful and i too had to endure this all through my growing up... since i was about 8 years old.... kids are always so cruel to those who scare them or make them insecure..... you have captured the emotions perfectly.... its sad to go thru this but you will be stronger because of it, dont let it settle beneath your skin or you wil become like them..
keep your writing coming it is truly beautiful

Insults are just another form of Jealousy. Great Write.
