Walk Away

I will not be broken again

I won’t give in to the madness you bring

Close the door now; walk away
I won’t let you destroy me today

 

I will not be torn again

Just because you think you’re stronger

I will not be the one forced down

Each time you choose to come around

 

See, someone told me don’t give up

Someone showed me I have strength

And though I won’t win every fight
I guarantee I’ll win tonight

 

No, I will not be broken now

I won’t give in to the madness you bring

So close the door now; walk away

I won’t let you destroy me today

An excellent, wise, and empowering piece! Love it, and as many people I'm sure, needed to read it. Well done!

You remind me of Isabelle Allende.
The definition of a strong woman.
your words are so inspiring, and always make me feel charged up, like I'm ready to fight the same battle. Great work once again!

This is a bold statement. The self confidence
here is eye opening...a lesson for us all.

I like the power and strength of this poem. We can't allow people to knock us down or hold us back. I like the flow and the story in your words. Last lines are the rules of life. Can't allow anyone to destroy us. A excellent poem.

I liked this. There was a real sense of inner strength in this piece that I admired, and I liked the adamant, empowered tone that was was a reflection of that strength. I thought that the repetition of the phrase 'I will not' worked really well in emphasising your idea, and the emotion that exuded from that was something that I could definitely relate to. Great write,

Wow this was sure inspiring work. Just as well as today I was feeling rather sad and I was wondering where all my self-confidence had disappeared to. When I saw the title of this I was reminded of a song of the same title by Athe band Five Finger Death
Punch:
"Just walk away, make it easy on yourself,
Just walk away, please release me from this hell,
Just walk away, there's just nothing left to heal,
Just walk away, pretend that none of this is real..."
Awesome poem!
