blank

A Poem by AleyshaRosa

Don't say it

don't speak the words


call me

names obscure


bend me

in molds unsure


don't you dare touch me

don't you dare


why do you question

these words of mine?


They mean nothing

but the world you live


bite into the flesh

of this


blank

white

page.

Neat work of written poetic art here. What a way to choose how to fill in the blanks on this page with the gripping words for your unique way of self expression. Great work. :)

Good message, and I love the last two sections. It felt very defiant, I like that. People need to know the real side of another before they are allowed to pass judgment. Never bow to the opressive views of others, confidence in yourself and who you really are is one of the greatest weapons a person can have

Thanks for the review =]
This is awesome ! It is ridiculous when others try to judge you before they even know you .

This is great. Such a statement to the world and to everyone who dares to judge you or see things in you that aren't there. Kind of a nice "f*** you" piece. Good stuff!

Haha indeed :p
now THAT was sassy. It kind of viewed the darker, rebellious side of you (or that's what I got) as in, don't you dare start to assume things before you even know! Awesome, your a great writer and don'tneed anyone to tell you that, you know.

I don't even know, I agree with the previous reviewer, there are so many different ways to look at this. It is very thought provoking in that way, and was most definitely a great read. It seems simple, but letting my mind wander proved otherwise! Thanks for sharing!

Okay I reread this about a dozen times and every time I had a new epiphany. I'm still not quite so sure which one I want to stick with. :P

As a fellow writer, I feel like this could be addressing writer's block? Maybe the "blank white page" taunting the fact that the words are not flowing. Another theory is something regarding a love letter or something of that nature.

The fact that I have at least 10 different ideas means that you did your job and you did your job well as a writer. You kept so many options open for your reader. No one likes bland. No one likes straight to the point. One thing about you Aleysha is that you never ever lack character or creativity. I have told you this a few times already but I know for a 100% fact that you will be a published New York Best Seller someday. Hopefully soon. Whenever this happens, don't forget about your friend Tiffany from writerscafe.org. ;) Thanks for the read. Very refreshing, especially with my last two nights.
