Please Tell Me

 

Tell me when

I'm crying

Can't feel the tears

Body numb from neglect

Consumed by fears

Breath is short and shallow

Screams can't escape

Mouth bound

unwanted invisible tape

The floor is wet with tears

Soul filled with fears

So please

Tell me when I'm crying

I can't feel them

On my face

Tell me when I'm screaming

Cause someday they'll escape...

Reviews

[Voltaire Mephisto (aka ..]

It was emotional. This poem may have been better as a freestyle though. I think you used the words fear, tears, and escape too much in this short poem. Synonyms can add more to a poem even if they do mean the same thing.

[Shadows of Sight]

Oh my! You certainly know how to capture fear and cause it to be right there in front of the reader!
Wonderful image, blunt and up front! Great Write!
