Numb

When we fall, we need lot of courage to stand up.. this poem shows the pain inside us...

 
         Huge scream

      Heavy noise

      High tension

      Large Illusion

      Long pain

      Little darkness

     Afraid to lose

     Taking risks

     Lot of Expectations

 

     Why I am afraid

     I don't know, I can't see

     I am my worst enemy

 

     You look around and all you see is hurt

     And I am the one who can't be saved

     Hiding myself behind the caves

     People asking me questions

     and I have nothing to enunciate

     Life is too short ,

     Lot of decisions to make

     Good things come to those who wait

     I am running out of space

     I stayed where my last step left me

     Maybe I am the one to blame

       Maybe we are all same...

This poem makes a lot of noise, and raises many questions....we are all one in the same, it takes courage to wake up in the morning and look at ourselves, just to breathe each day can be a challenge. I think you've connected the dots with this one! Nice....

Thank you:)

Its definatly got something, its shocking and in places unexpected. Very good expression of feeling and emotion. Perhaps lacking in flow the lines seem a little ended but its nothing serious . Id say a job well done.

An interesting poem, full of uncertainty and undefined fear, that says a lot about the human condition. A professional therapist once told me he always told his patients that fear is always irrational, and this poem transports this truth in a lyrical way, a good write.

wow, you wrote this very well. i can relate because im going through this right now. i know how it's like. Gosh, to feel like you're all alone and feeling scared.. gosh it's not good at all. Amazing. you've got great lines:

" Why I am afraid

I don't know, I can't see

I am my worst enemy"

These words shows the power of this poem. Brilliant. i missed your poetry. Keep writing ^^

i really liked this. it expressed the feelings of being trapped by your own restrictions really well. nice job :)

[PetiteGemini]

This is very well down. The words describe how people feel when they don't have any emotions to feel. I missed your writings. Don't stop :)

It might be results of living in an illusion! We all are of same kind but every act for a situation is recognized!

Well done....I like it

"Why I am afraid
I don't know, I can't see
I am my worst enemy"

This stanza is my favorite. I think you described numbness and depression pretty well in this poem.
