The bullets of disappointment

disappointment is very difficult thing to deal with,specially from someone so close to you.

silent bullets,heavy missiles

the cannonballs of disappointment are flying

colliding with dreary stares, grieving eyes

and silence is the veil

acknowledged with the bitter truth

the rims if collapsing are approaching

and the deceptive remedies won't suffice

the may be, the what if

all wronged the heart with delirious faith

what seemed to be titanium chains

are nothing but shamming glass

that wronged the heart with delirious faith

yet we all knew it

but the lips won't utter it

 suffocated chords of courage won't

utter the bitter truth and  uncover the veil of silence

i was taken in, then chained like this to the reality of the awkwardness, and the bitter truth...love was not meant to last...even when the lips didn't want to say it.

the cannonball run
is a cinematic masterpiece
and no one appreciates
part three with lee van cleff in it
HAI!!

[Pryde Foltz]

yet we all knew it
but the lips won't utter it
suffocated chords of courage won't
utter the bitter truth and uncover the veil of silence

When one is at war with herself, the pain is intense. Great write.

I had to re-read to really grasp the meaning.veil of silence indeed. I generally love the theme of the poem and especially the last stanza. Beautiful poem with such good description latifa :)

I especially like that last stanza but the entire read was great. 'Delirious faith' now that speaks volumes.

Intelligent and well written, I enjoyed the entire poem - but the last verse is my favorite. Great job.

I hate when someone is disappointed in me... I think it is worse than them being mad, but that is just me. I loved this, it is so powerful and very relatable.

Powerful used of words. I had to read twice for the strength in the description. So many lines stood out in the poem. I could feel the disappointment in the words. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
