Everyone tells me to just let it go. 

Stop being mad at the past.

How can I let it go.

When the people I am mad at just keep hurting me. 

I try.

I try to be happpy. 

I try to forgive and forget,

But, How can I let it go.

When you just keep hurting me?

You tell me I am stupid, lame.

Among other things.

People tell me to just Let it go.

Don't let it bother me.

How can ? When your my mom?

How can I when you do it all the time?

How can I???

People try to help but they only make it worse.

So, I ask agian How can I?

what a deep and emotional poem! I love the style of your writing as well as the emotions this piece brought across. Great job! :) PS Could you possibly check out my novel "The Art of Letting Go"? I'd appreciate it!

I can relate. If you feel this way, you should read my poem. It's called 'The Struggle' Tell me what you think. Thanks for posting such a remarkable piece of art. :)
