just about where I want to be

You hurt me
You trapped me
You tormented
You teased me

You took me
You dropped me
You scared me
You left me

I cried
I escaped
I fought back
I ignored you

I took back
I lifted myself
I became braver
I waved goodbye

Not my best work, but here it is!

stay cool

For every truth, there is an ear somewhere to hear it
For every love, there is a heart somewhere to receive it".--Ivan Panin

I think your last line would be a good title
"I waived goodbye"
Your poem showed a strength that is good to see.  
Good work and hello again!

You changed
You laughed
You abused me
You bruised me

I accepted
I closed my ears
I hit back
I healed


Two more verses I added...Maybe I should put them before the last verse???

Lavada~
These last 2 verses are very good.  I think the second new stanza should be before the last verse, and the first new one should be either before or after the second verse- your choice.
