"I hate you…
I want to hurt you…
Hit you where it hurts you most…
Make you suffer,
Make you feel the way I do…"

I say such actions are an utter waste of precious time. Anyway, if they don't already understand you, acts of vengance likely won't make them understand you any better, sad to say.

This is a sign to me of psychological (egotistical) and spiritual immaturity. My humble opinion, that's what I see in it right now. But we've all felt that way, including me. I used to be very vindictive at times. So I probably see that especially because I can see the aspect in myself and I've been there in many ways. And I know in myself that when I had such thoughts they were mere egotism and emotionally immature.

Again, I suggest that such thoughts and this person are probably a waste of your time and lifeblood. Time can be spent on better things. The best way to get a person who has harmed you back, is to think nothing of them at all.. to give them no attention at all. IMHO.

Abyss...
You are absolutely right, revenge is a waste of time... But this is a poem, how I felt back then, I wrote them because it made me feel better... But things have changed... and life does go on...

hehehe.. speaking of hate. lol. geez.. what happened here? oh well. That's good that you wrote them to make you feel better. That's a good reason. That's why I write too fast for these places that I have to start 'complaining'.. Release. =) I am not angry, just haunted a lot of the time. It does work wonders though. And I'm glad life goes on and you don't still feel like that. 1996-2004 doesn't give me a clue when you wrote it. I only know you were posting a bunch of depressing ones. I will say with this one, you said pretty well what so many people are thinking when they are hurt.. "psychologically hunt you down" is a good one.

this one is immature and lacks substance but is nice for giving a glimpse into a kid's perspective.

I do believe in expressing my feelings into words, it helps alot... I do however agree that this poem sounds so aggressive (among with few others I've posted lately), almost childish like, and perhaps it is... I do not believe however, that it lacks substance, and if it does, please, feel free to tell me how... Constructive criticism is one of the main reason as to why I posted them in the first place...

The poems I've posted lately are poems I've written when I was a kid, I am not defending the way I have written it, because it was how I felt back then... And so I put them into words... I do believe that the very essence of poetry is the feeling it projects when you read it... Whether it be a happy, confused, angry or sad... And if my poems did that, then I am happy...
