Your spiteful words
come down on me
with a sting
like freezing rain

I stand before you
helplessly
A pawn in this
cruel game

You build me up
to break me down
I pray for this
to end

But you keep on
relentlessly
seeking pleasure
in my pain

I've come to lose
my soul to you
Left to wonder
what you gain

And as I turn
to run away
I realize
I will never be the same

Never the same as in, stronger and wiser, right?!? Very nicely done danni. This is a great expression.

Excellent Danni!

Our greatest strength lies within us. . .

Well done!

Stronger and wiser that is what you are now Danni, that which does not kill us makes us stronger.

This was a wonderful reflective piece

Yes. I do suppose I have become stronger and wiser although it took a long time to realize it. But I had also lost a part of myself that I've tried to find but now realize I will probably never find it. And I don't know wether that's good or bad yet. I suppose that is why I will never be the same.
Whew! sorry about that, I sure do like to ramble on don't I.
Anyway, thank you all for the wonderful comments. Always look forward them!

Alot of things change us , and thanks to painful events, we never are the same.
I loved your poem could honestly relate.

I really enjoyed the flow in this...

I truly believe that just living life...
Is enough to make us all never be the same

Good work
