I appreciate the honesty in this. it reminds me of how we block out memories to cope with trauma and the despair that comes through shame, fear, and anger. The desire to not have an identity in an attempt to reclaim this can be so strong.
The creativity in how you gradually went through the process of not existing is really cool here too. You started with the messages through family and told a story within each of the four line stanzas. I really liked that.
Our worth isn't in our productivity and we aren't defined by the toxic messages of our past-- just a friendly reminder.
Hope all is well.
How you kept adding onto it was amazing. It started from more of the simple stuff and added to deeper and more personal levels.
Nicely done.
preach.
Way to truly speak your mind here! Sometimes that's hard to do in this world when people shut down your opinion without really giving you a chance to express them. Good job.
i love this
I just so happen to come back to this story to see that people are making "leading-statements of belief" towards others and that saddens me. It seems that people just assume, based on the comment counts of positives and negatives, that people are judging others based on a belief/opinion even when they didn't express it.
So I deleted my first review on this poem that gave this 4 stars because we have opposite beliefs and now this is a new review and I give this writing all stars even when I have an opposite belief/opinion.
Thank you AaronTheRocker for writing something that may go against other's belief/opinion, because you are playing by the "rules" of human nature.
I think abortions are okay, but that doesn't mean this is bad writing because it is pretty good and I'm glad you put your opinion/belief out there for everyone to see. Not exactly the easiest thing to do.
It's brave to share this opinion. Looking at the reviews is kind of funny because most of them are people agreeing with you, and those reviews are downvoted to -4 or some such number, and it just amuses me that they're completely silent but still feel spiteful and angry enough to do that.
Guys, if you're reading this, just learn to deal with other people having and expressing opinions that are different than yours.
