As I read down the page, I could imagine a song or melody, hard music with soft undertones representing the anger and hurt that the voice of the poem is brought to suffer and the pain to endure.

Have you ever considered how placement on the paper could give depth and meaning to your writing? It is my belief that something as simple as where the poem is placed upon the page can add personification and help to bring the poem to life. In my view, aligning the poem to the left of the page can give the perception of conformity, unity, balance, as if all is right in the world, to where centering the poem, you get lines or verses that are offset and none begin or end in the same place, and this could represent chaos, anger, sadness and confusion. Aligning the poem to the right would then come to show change, from chaos came order, as the lines would be offset to start, but all end in the same place. In the end, poetry is to interpretation. What a poet writes and what a reader comprehends isn't always the same, and some people like to read too much into things when looking for hidden meaning and agendas.

A creative piece that rants about the injustices served and ends with the best response of all... nothing to me. For in the end, we are the one's that allow others to hurt us. We are the ones who decide what makes or breaks us, and only we can change our perception. To me this is a poem of growth and of strength.

Overall a well written piece that I would love hear put to music someday.
