Flames of hate are rising, anger bubbling over. Its intensity is surprising and difficult to hold under, under my skin, in my mind. I'm tired of being so kind. Don't wanna keep my thoughts unknown. Loyalty is breached, no solution can be reached. Calmness overthrown by rage, fueled by betrayal, alienation imminent, no sympathy for the loyal, Only hostility. Stinging words used malapropriately, truth tainted by gossip. One trying discreetly to sever the bonds of friendship. Rationality thrown away, this pain is here to stay... |

The feelings in the poem were so deep, so explosive, I could feel you anger, bitterness, and pain. Very very well done! All I can say is wow... Sincerely, Titus |

Beautiful work expressing yourself. I loved this, because the intensity of the emotion is well done. This piece hit me hard. "I'm tired of being so kind." You're tired of being the doormat... being used and abused. Very familiar feeling to many, I'm sure. "Don't wanna keep my thoughts unknown. Loyalty is breached, no solution can be reached." Trust... aargh. A very hard thing, especially when you've been hurt before. Time and time again. Very nice job with this poem. I must say, I am very impressed, and I look forward to reading more. Thanks for sharing. --Marie If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the most frustrated people in the world are those who know they're stupid, but keep trying anyway. |

I will also have to steal the word "explosive". I thought the emotions literally jumped off the page at me. VERY VERY WELL DONE ~Nikki~ Smile!! You never know who may be falling in love with it... |
