Silence.

Silence.

A Poem by +Naomi+
"

...

"
Talking about it doesn't help me.
Running away doesn't solve anything.
I don't need to share these feelings,
They're mine and I can hold them in..

You can blame me all you'd like,
You can shame me all day..
But nothing hurts me more
than watching myself bleed.

If dying is the only way out,
you might as well kill me now.
Trust me, I know it's a bad thing to say.
But I can't take anymore of this pain.

One more friend has gone away,
one more soul lost to the game..
I hope and will to God himself
that you'll be able to rest in peace.

My heart's a cold piece of steel,
that only some manage to break through.
I wish for silence as I scream through drifts of pain.
The waves of the world crash upon my back,
and I listen only to find you crying..
"Help."

Honestly, I had to zoom in to see this! haha my eyes are terrible! zoom is at 150%. i need better glasses, but this is a great peice of writing. a lot of emotion in one short piece of writing. it truly is a great peice of writing. I have no complaints for this piece.

This like, made me cry.. I don't want anything to ever happened to you.. It would kill me. But then again, it would have to wouldn't it? Cause without you I'd be completly lost. You changed my life, you helped save me, and to this day you save me. I love you, and I don't want anything to happen to you ):

This is very literal and straightforward, but it has a lot of emotional impact and writing it in the super tiny font conveys feelings of perceived insignificance and tininess to the reader. It's really bleak, but I think that is how you meant for it to come across.

"My heart's a cold piece of steel,
that only some manage to break through.
I wish for silence as I scream through drifts of pain.
The waves of the world crash upon my back,
and I listen only to find you crying..
"Help." "
this is my favorite stanza.
this poem holds such pain within it. Completely heart breaking. The words "I listen only to find you crying.."Help" " at the end only increase the poignant feelings that this poem causes..well done. i will pray for you

This piece is staggering in it's intensity. Few words bespeak of unfathomable sorrow and you've found a combination of syllables to convey just that. Such momentous loss does indeed cause one to become adamantine of heart and this piece leaves me screaming silence, for lack of words to convey just how much I appreciate the candor with which it was written. Absolutely stunning bit of work!

I like the honest words in this poem.
"But nothing hurts me more
than watching myself bleed."
Life give you two ways to go. To give a care or don't give a damn. I was lucky. I was hard headed and follow the rule of moving on and not giving a damn. A excellent poem.
