Waking Up (Free verse) by PawnedTidal
Who the fuck are you To try and tell me what to do? I'll find someone new And hope to hell they're nothing like you. You pulled the wool over my eyes. But put away your disguise Cause I'm hip to your lies. I won't let you be my demise. Unspoken anger has grown Into rage like I've never known. I cherish the day when you're gone, And I reclaim my life as my own. You didn't see What you had with me. So take your fucking apathy And stay the hell away from me.

This isn't about parents, I am certainly no teen, and I think you are confusing angst with anger. Since when is being a little angry a bad thing? A zero, knowit? That's cold.

I never said it was about parents and I did not give you a 0. But if you are going to write an angry poem you could get the point across in much better fashion without using the profanity, which don't get me wrong, certainly has a place in writing - just ask David Mamet. But the sentiment becomes nothing but rambling, which ultimately comes crashing down as another teen angst poem. Geez, you even use the word anger in the poem.

You can definitely feel what you wrote. It's quite comprehensible to a general audience. Easy for people to relate yet very passionate. keep up the good work
