This poem really sound good. I mean what ever comes from your heart just let it be.

Fiona

This poem has really hit the nail in the head. Sometimes we can get fed up looking for love that we settle for second best! Feeling a fool in love brings on these feelings of frustration! What a talented way of getting these feelings across!

Kimberly

Jacquelin

I really loved this poem. I think that almost all women can say that they too have been with a man like that. It's nice to know that we have the guts to stand up to them.

Shelly

I know many people before me have said this, but your poem is truly great. It also makes a lovely a capella song ;) Keep it up, Meghan

A beautiful exhale of anger and personal feelings. Poetry seems so much stronger when you are writing about your own feelings and emmotions.

Tina

You got it!!!! Hope everyone else is able to get it, if they find themselves in a similar situation!!! Great job!!!

I just had the biggest argument with mhy boyfriend and I feel like we broke up. He wants me, but only when he calls. I don't agree and I think this peom almost completely describes things. So, I sent it to him! It is EXCELLENT!

I write poems myself. I write my true feelings at that moment, no sugar coating. I think Meghan did an awesome job in doing this. I can relate to it myself in many ways although the circumstances differ.
