Read Me

A Poem by ShameemAkhtar

Read the lines
And then read between


If you manage

Read beyond…


And yonder


After you read the lines
Between
And beyond


Understand


The lines beneath


Read me


A world
yonder

Author's Note

ShameemAkhtar
This is not really a poem in itself. I compiled an anthology of poetry entitled 'Tear Me Apart'. Most of the poems of that collection are posted there.

This 'poem' is the key to reading those poems and unlocking another level of meaning that is beyond the comments that I am currently receiving against them...

There is more to every piece than what we read on the surface, and this is accentuated in this poem. It encourages the reader to look beyond what is outright said, not only in this work but in all works, which i think is very noble.

Though simple, there is more to this piece than just the words on the surface. Very nice.

I like this and I feel that between and younder is a deeper subject that may have been left out. Still it is very well addressed. Your work flow quickly giving me a chance to adhere to the prose.

A good theory, well presented, including the spaces between.

This is what my english teachers always tell me to do, read between the lines. Very simple and very well written.

Yes... there is always something of me in the lines beneath...

It was an old concept to read between the lines.......Important too much today.

I like how it portrays that their is a world beyond what is actually said and what we actually meant or wanted

I really like how this poem is physically structured. The gaps between some of the lines help to emphasize and structure your point.
