so
I decided
not to let the hate take over
to ignore attempts
at making me feel
discarded.
So what?
You said yourself
you didn't love me
and from there
emptiness
resolve
and then
a vain attempt
not to notice the scars
from all the time before
when my anger at you
was turned on myself.

Sounds like it would cause a scratch here and there. The debris of corrupted affection does make nice poetry though. Nice write.

Does she pray? Am I prey? The strength of reality demands honesty and this path is in a shovel...

This isn't the best have since I am out of practice, but its great to get such a reaction to what I do have.
