Silent Screams

RSS

By Kellz

My silent screams are louder than your inaction I beg and plead for a sign- anything But it’s pointless. I could talk until the next equinox and you’d never hear a word. I could flood a room with the tears I’ve shed. You’d simply get a raft And ignore everything I could drill through you walls but they’d be back before I flinch your self-destructing habits are reaching out for company I won’t join. This silver surface before you sees all nothing can be hidden from it even if broken the pieces are more together than you Turn away from it all And turn to within Only then will the screams have sound words heard, tears dried Nov 24 2G4 Wed 1:34am

Very Nice I like the similies very creative, and the frustration of being ignored are easily felt when I read the poem

I feel the same way. No one ever hears or understands when I try to reach out to them. Its a really good poem.
