Today, I Feel Strong

Today, I feel heartbroken
Because my forever love didn't last.
What was suppose to be future
Has just become my past.

Today, I feel lonely
Because I left my companion,
The one for whom my love
Was deeper than the grand canyon.

Today, I feel depression
Because no one can relate.
I'm all alone in this world.
It's just me...give or take.

Today, I feel self-concious
Because I don't know what I did wrong.
I can't understand why our melodies
Were those of different songs.

Today, I feel ignorant
Because of my stupid choice.
Because I knew his lies.
I could hear them in his voice.

Today, I feel inadequate
Because I chose to stay.
Because I wasn't enough for myself.
Because I wasted my days.

Today, I feel dumb.
Because the truth was in my face.
Because I gave him everything.
Because I let him lie dead in my face.

But, the negative emotions
Are somehow overcome.
Because even though I feel bad,
Today, I feel strong.

Today, I feel strong.
Because I had the guts to leave.
I knew when enough was enough
And I became enough for me.

Today, I feel strong
Because I uncovered the truth
Because I gave him up
Because he is no longer under my roof.

Today, I feel strong
Because he will forever respect me
Because I stopped taking his crap
Because I made it how it has to be

Today, I feel strong
Because I have enough love for myself
Because I am my own truth
Because I know my own worth

Today, I feel strong
Because he can hurt me no longer
I had the strength to leave
And now that I'm gone
I'll become stronger.

I think this is a powerful poem and it show how a women can get into a relationship and find out that it not for her and has the strength to get out. I love it. It empowers other women and shows them they don't have to take it either. Read some of my poems I write to empower women as well. Keep up the good work mommy. YOur only 17 I can only imagine what your going to be like at 25 world watch out.

I am glad that you are stronger. Now spend some time by yourself and improve yourself before you get into another relationship.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
