Poem Commentary

I have always aspired to be ,what I believe, is a strong women. Sometimes walking away is the hardest thing someone can do. It is doing what is hard that makes us strong.

Free

I am a bird.
No,
The sun.
No,
The stars.

I am above you,
Beyond you.

Your words of scorn
Do not touch me.
I am free.

The painful lies
You told to me
Can hurt me nomore.
I don't believe you.
I am free.

Your once loving touch
That turned so hurtful
With anger.
Will color my body
No more.
I am free.

I stand now
Strong again.
Whole again.
Me again.

I will cower before you
No more.
I will not 
Grovel at your feet
For your forgiveness.

I allow nothing 
To bind me to you.
Not even my anger,
My hate.
With every word I write
They deminish,
Untill there is nothing.

I am free.

To walk away takes strength... to bear the pain and sorrow of being unloved can destroy a person...

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
