I am fighting back, holding back Trying to make things right I lost almost everything, and I want it back I fight back with words, stronger then the most violent swords I had a life once that was grand I am holding back the best I can Gasping for air, sucking in the rotten air Of people, who have wronged me I fight for revenge with words so pure I am fighting back with words so fair I won't find my answer in violence I'll find my answer in words So, reader, beware I have a lot to say No apology will be accepted You should have made a better choice You wrecked my life, now I am wrecking yours With words stronger than violent swords Stronger than violent swords. . . . |

Words cut sharper than most swords too, and sometimes the wounds never heal... I know. Good angst-letting. |

Sunshine- Hey. How are you? I am doin good. This poem is supposed to give the feel that violence isn't everything. But I can still hold power by beating the person with words. Not that its right or anything. |

Kellie, you know what they say words are a double eged sword cutting to the quick, so be careful with your words lest they cut you. Still a good write angst filled and active. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
