#criticized - Hello Poetry

Without the label of a teacher Nonetheless things are pointed out With care and diligence Comments meticulously exacting As though there is a sixth sense About what is detailed More than busy, attention is thorough Rigor seeps from every statement Oozing inside the listeners skull How much perseverance can Be understood while feeling Crushed beneath a microscope’s slide

"why are you so insecure?" repeat. repeat. repeat. why wouldn't I be? do you know the ache of being me? I never learned how to love myself, and I've never really seen anything to love It is only me. it's impossible to feel confident when you hate every inch of your body to be trapped in my mind, is like being publicly criticized just like Your worst dream, but every night my disgusting body, the life I keep trying to find and then ask again. why are you so insecure? This is no disguise Try and see through these aching eyes

Poetry gives our soul a voice The courage to write without hesitation and proclaim without explanation To the point that it is no longer poetry, but the words we have been choking on in fear of being criticized

Poetry?

trampling over weathered grounds along the way that's where I'll be found beaten, bruised, and criticized yet when you see me I'll be fine

*you say you wish to protect me from the wolves circling around me, but your words are the things that bite like a canine's teeth. so let me lie with the wolves, and let their fur protect me from the chill of your heart.*

*you say you wish to protect me from the wolves circling around me, but your words are the things that bite like a canine's teeth. so let me lie with the wolves, and let their fur protect me from the chill of your heart.*

Whose got the answers? Rise oh rise! Whose got the answers now? Whose criticizing? Oh rise, oh rise? Whose criticizing now? Who thinks they know, and who knows they think? Trumping their thoughts, onto me? Who knows what's right, and who knows what's wrong? Who has the answers to fix everyone? Tell me, oh tell me, I just have to know, whose got the answers now?

Whose Got The Answers (sort of like a song)

Whose got the answers? Rise oh rise! Whose got the answers now? Whose criticizing? Oh rise, oh rise? Whose criticizing now? Who thinks they know, and who knows they think? Trumping their thoughts, onto me? Who knows what's right, and who knows what's wrong? Who has the answers to fix everyone? Tell me, oh tell me, I just have to know, whose got the answers now?
