Screaming whispers

Screaming whispers

A Poem by Shannon

You know i love you
But you don't understand
What i'm screaming in whispers
echoing through the sand

Screaming
I love you
Whispering
but...

I don't really need you
But don't take it that way
It means i would be fine
If you just walked away

I've learned long ago
To rely on no one
Because even a broken whisper
Can scream to the sun

Can tell the whole world
The truth that you hide
Behind screamed whispers
And truths denied

Scream at my resistance
Though i whisper that there is none
I don't ignore you, or pull away
Because when its all said and done

I'll be screaming
That i can live without you
But whispering
I'm done.....

The flow of this is perfect, but not as perfect as the concept behind it. I loved this completely. Now if only I could learn to think this way....

Wow. So sad, yet so...not. The lack of capitalization in a few stanzas bothered me, but that is easily fixed. I loved the last stanza, it flowed so nicely, it was so perfect. The rhyme throughout the entire thing seemed effortless.
Great job
