[hometext] => This is about someone who has been hurting me... taking advantage, I guess you'd say. Comments welcome, I'm new at this! :)
[bodytext] => My feet slowly shuffle Inside the brick school building that I dread I reach for the silver knob of your door And suddenly fear resounds in my head I'm always the first student to arrive And I'm the very best student in my class Always straight A's, and never a problem Until this year, alas Sweat breaks out on my forehead With the thoughts of what you've done My teacher, the one who I trusted Who one turned into a demon My fingers reach the doorknob And, in terror, it somehow turns I open the door a crack And my whole body burns I take a deep, shaky breath and go in I see her at her desk As always, she ignores me Like I'm some sort of annoying pest I silently unpack my books And take what I need for the day She passes me on the way to her closet And not a word does she say As I look up at her I see the hatred in her eyes It radiates from all around her And it makes me want to cry A teacher should never ever be allowed To abuse a child like this She should never have the authority To take away childhood bliss For me my innocence left long ago When I was only eight Mommy was slowly dying from cancer And I terrors that refused to abate I turned to this teacher in fear When my family was falling apart And she was kind for a little while But then she crushed my heart I believed in her like a mother And she meant the world to me But one day, last year, it turned out She despised and hated me fully She began to hurt and pierce me Both in body and in mind I felt such pain and torment But no one believed she was unkind Still today I fear her I shake in terror during her class Just knowing she is waiting to scream at me And that no one can eliminate my distress I'm on vacation now But next Monday I go back to school And then again I'll face her My teacher, once trusted, now so cruel We should be able to choose our heroes And they should never shrink away From the trust and love we give them When we are led astray [comments] => 6 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 48 [informant] => NightOwl [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
