Thank you for sharing your inspirational free-verse with random rhymes. (In the first stanza, I think "was" should be "were" and in the third stanza, "your words" lost its first "r".) Thanks for the courage to write about a personal lesson--I hope creating the poem brought some solace. Happy weekend- Joan

What I love most about this fine free style verse, Jaq, is the wonderful contrast between confident survival and fragility. It reads beautifully with very smooth flow and leaves the reader feeling very positive. Awesome, Jaq, simply awesome!

Och aye the noo

Julie :-)

I loved the picture, the mystery. You have to survive, just to find out what comes next. A very motivating piece. Excellent work. Congrats on choosing such a wonderful project in which to be involved.

foreplay and voice was - were
strong use of rhyme
good alliteration in phrases like bruised and battered
and good consonance in damaged and undone
you convey the speaker's spirit in an uplifting, inspiring tone :-) Brooke

A very touching poem about surviving the odds one after another and still able to get up from the floor. No more lies, no more deceit and no more believing in falsehoods. Wake up to reality and not be trodden by anyone - only out to cheat and lie to get what they want.
All of us have been there before - out of love, cast alone to face our own music and melody. Others just couldn't understand and even said "I told you so!".
Excellent write and well expressed and a good lesson for others to learn to stand up and fight our ground.
Cheerio, Ritchie.

Another chapter in the book on surviving life. Abuse comes in many forms -- physical, verbal and sometimes even spiritual. Yet as long as there is hope -- there is hope!

First off beautiful mystic photo.

you showed you (your) love
for all to
see
an your heartfelt plea
brought tears.

This line tripped me and jarred me from the flow.

In your fourth stanza (in the center) seemed rushed and a bit forced.

Overall it was very honest, and I'm sure plenty can relate.

It just read a bit scattered.

    I looked back at your piece. The main issue is the rhythmic formula. I'm more than willing to explain what I mean, but it will be later in the day after I get a few hours of sleep.

    Sorry for the time it took me to respond, things have been hectic. My mention before was about poetic verse, if broken up this reads find; however clustered there's too many stops and goes (if that makes since).
