Hate me- I know you want to. I see your face twist into a mangled colage of anger and jealousy when I do something right. I feel you stab at me with your eyes when I walk by. I hear the lies you spread to bring me to your own level. But you can't shake me from my perch high above your childlike ways. I'm too strong. I'm too happy with my life to allow such feeble attempts at hurting me to break me down. No matter what you do or say, I will still be the same guy u hate each and every day. so, go ahead- Hate me. |

Sometimes having enemies is just as important as having friends---it is not upto you whether people hate you or not...it's upto the people---and how dense they are. Hating someone means you can't cope with your problems---that's probably why I hate myself... Good write! Although I think it could be abit longer. And ryhming mighta helped! But it's your work...not mine! [b]"Snake, always remember that your mind if your most dangerous weapon. If things get too complicated---simplify your thoughts![b] |

Hehe. None of my business, but sudden curiosity regarding who you're referring to here. ![]() Anywayz, it's great to know that you hold a good control over your life and that you're confident, and this person's attempt to bring you down has failed. ![]() _,,,^.^,,,_ |

Don't ever regard people who are just jealous of you. It's their problem that they are so inadequite anyway. This is a well-written poem. Thanks for sharing it with us. Job well done. ![]() --Marie I wish your fingers could touch all I can't say... no one should ever feel this alone. |

i must agree with Android here- it would have been a much better poem if I had made the effort to rhyme, however when you havent been able to complete a single stanza to your own liking- let alone a whole poem in almost 2 months, just about anything that gets finished is satisfactory in your own eyes. ![]() -Joe |

In response to Zukene_Chic: I respect your opinion and appreciate you taking time to read this piece. Masochism certainly was not my intent. The Random House Dictionary defines masochism as such "1. The condition in which sexual gratification depends on physical pain, esp. inflicted on oneself. 2. Neurotic gratification from physical pain and humiliation." In this poem i am stating that the infliction of pain by someone else will not bring me down, nor affect my life in a negative way. -Joe |
