Poem "silently, I scream - violently, I dream"


your precious words are a thin, thin string
wrapped around me
so tightly
it tears at my edges

bleeding me raw

but
they are all that keep me together
for I am broken and bent
like a too old puppet

in a shadow play of life

    1. Thanks, Maria! I wanted to ocatch the feeling of being unable to hold yourself together unless someone is there to help you. Like you scream inside for help yet dream you get that help.

  2. ... I have a knot in my stomach, part II. These two poems made me weep heartful tears of despair. Beautiful they are, in their implacable sadness and truth.

    ....
    Correction: I feel more like I have been punched in the stomach so true do these words ring in my ears.

    2. ta-meaut it's true your writings can affect other people especially ones who may actually suffer but don't stop writing like this because maybe it can actually make people see and feel what they actually feel inside some people don't know how they feel so in some ways it can help as much as it sounds strange lol

    5. Hahaha, you are so cute, Maria! Thank you for that illuminating comment - I do agree with you that sometimes jsut sinking into your pain makes it better somehow because just oppressing it makes it worse - that is sure. I will not stop writing for I cannot live if I don't, it is vital for me to have a let out and I love doing it.

      Hahah, that is so cute that you have a folder with my stuff :D - I am so happy you love it !
