I Dare You

by Unamed   May 2, 2008


Hit me.
I Dare You.
Do you think that
that will change who i am?

Whip me.
I Dare You.
Or maybe its this whip
that will make me change.

Throw me.
I Dare You.
It could be that throw
that will finaly make me someone else.

Lie to me.
I Dare You.
Tell me things i want to hear
maybe that will change who i am.

Burn me.
I Dare You.
Those ashes laying before you
might just only change me physically.

Drown me.
I Dare You.
Do you think that
that will change who i really am inside?

Hit me.
Whip me.
Throw me.
Lie to me.
Burn me.
Drown me.
I Dare You!

No Matter What.
I Will Still Be Who I Am.

    Wow, very strong poem. I like this. I like the repetativness of "I dare you" After every action.

    Bad and good.

    Bad first?
    Alright.

    It could be that throw

    It sounds wrong.
    Try... "It could be that THAT throw"

    Honestly?
    I think at some points you took things too far.
    Like, burning and drowning you?

    It doesn't fit in with the poem.

    At least that's what I think.

    But other than that...

    I didn't like this poem as much as the other.

    Probably because I disagree with it.

    Quote: "No Matter What.
    I Will Still Be Who I Am."

    In my belief,
    Experience molds and changes a person.
    We don't know who we are yet.

    Really enjoyed this read, good message, well versed. Thought, I would enjoy reading this with the last line of the first stanza replacing all the last lines(repetitive).
