Self Made Poetry 2

Nice Try

I heard you pull the trigger.

Saw the deceit in your eyes.

You thought you could break me.

What you didn't realize, i recognized that look.

Seen it before.

You can't hurt me anymore.

That bullet you tried to lodge in my heart.

I was dodging it from the very start.

I saw right through your web of lies.

Your hatred marking my skin.

The poison from within your soul.

You call yourself powerful?

There's no power in inflection of pain.

Your miniscule.

A fool to think you could control me with fear.

Your fantasized role of power.

It's nothing.

Darkness devoured my soul long ago.

You thought i would cower from your violent outbursts.

Your thirst for my destruction.

You inflected your worst.

Bruises heal.

Blood dries.

Those cries were my victory.

I survived.

I'm thriving, living my life.

Nice try.
