The pain that comes because they chastise
How does it feel to hear them chide
What will it take for them to realize
That it all wants to make you hide

They’ve pushed and pushed into chaos
Though they disavow their part
How they’ve made you insecure
Now left with a broken heart

What pride they have to act blameless
As though their doings were for the best
They ignorantly coerce you
To work when you desperately need rest

Easily they can weaken you
Taking sleep and stealing time
You’re so compliant to do
All they want, losing your mind

Why can’t you be cognizant?
Are you blind to what they do?
Is your common sense distant?
To how this will destroy you

The pain that comes because they chastise
How does it feel to hear them chide
What will it take for them to realize
That this pain comes from their own pride



With God I am happy; sadness has no say in my life.

Although there was a strong theme througout ur poem, the rhyming seemed forced in almost every stanza. This was okay, but I'm sure that u can make this much better.
Thanks for sharing! I'd love to see more.

There is power in the pen.
