I've got stronger

by Gizmo   Mar 19, 2008


Iâ??m not that little girl no more,
Skinned knees and elbows do not make me cry,
Stop saying you understand what Iâ??m going through,
Iâ??m trying, itâ??s all I can do, and Iâ??ll promise you -Iâ??ll try.

Iâ??ll try and get better encase I let you down,
Wouldnâ??t want a stain in the prefect family tapestry,
Iâ??m old enough now to stand up for my beliefs,
Iâ??m glad you let me down, the black sheep of the family.

Iâ??m not sorry Iâ??ve changed and Iâ??ve got my head on the ground,
Iâ??m not ashamed to stand up for myself and make a sound.
So turn your backs, its my turn to have the final say,
Iâ??ve got stronger, but watching you walk away.

    Brilliant.
    It seems a lot of people seem to think others can't change, and usually gets people bothered; that seems to be conveyed in the poem.

    Although it's been said, you got those "I���¢??m" that always seems to appear when you use a ' in your poem.
    Something about this site I guess.

    ". . . little girl no more," << Honestly, I think " any more" would sound better, and it's what should be there anyway. But, sometimes "no more" sounds better, lol, just not in this case.

    You did a great job with this poem, I absolutely love it. Especially the end of it. (:

    Now, do you mean " by watching you walk away" at the end, or is it correct how it is?

    And, I'm glad you've gotten stronger. It just stinks on how it came to be, eh.

    Keep it up, darling. You're a good writer.

    It would be much pleasing to read if you try to edit the texts like this "Iâ??m".. i h\find it simple yet powerful and that emotions caught y whole interest.. good job by the way i love the last line it shows that you are now ready to face whatever circumstances that will come your way. =)
