Deafening Silence

Not sure how to describe this

 

Deafening Silence

 

From deep inside the storms did rage

Causing pen to flow words to page

Now when all eyes turn anew

Where are those words and why so few?

 

Time ceases to matter

There’s way too much clatter

Yet deafening my heart

The sound defies the art!

 

Silence once golden now so loud

Like the one so lonely deep within a crowd

Where now do I place defence

Of why I am so deafened by silence?

For some reason I can relate to this poem. My favorite lines describe how I feel at this moment in time.

Silence golden now so loud
Like the one so lonely deep within a crowd

Sometimes the silence speaks loudly especially when you feel so alone in a crowded room/world filled with people... Thank you for sharing. Debileah

Well written I liked this. If you like poems like this read mine called "Writers Block. And let me know what you think!

I love the idea of this, it can be about anything and i like that idea. Silence can be so loud and pressuring even though theres nothing there. Very well done!

A very nice write. I know what you mean about the silence. Silence it seems is all I have hear. Unless, I turn the TV on. Or, one of my dogs bark. LOL!

Nice write..When I went through my 10 + years of seizures I would get up in the midddle of the night and write a poem and find it the next day and not even know I had written it..Some of my best poems were written during that time..But..I do not want seizures again so I can write better lines,,God bless..Valentine

This offers a new twist on writer's block. The silence is maddening! Especially when there are still a lot of thoughts clamoring around in the head. Those times that the words don't take form to resemble any sense.

My mind is always racing like that! filled with ideas then when I try to write them down - they are much more sparse than I think they should be...

From deep inside the storms did rage
Causing pen to flow words to page
Now when all eyes turn anew
Where are those words and why so few?....

Great job.

it was interesting to be sure. you took a familiar cliche and used it in an original way. That is not always easy to do so kudos for that.
I thought you did pretty well with this leaving ample reflection in the mind after reading.

I spotted a couple of errors, but I enjoyed the read. Wonderfully penned, Pete.


Great Write.
