Array ( [sid] => 137575 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Devoid [time] => 2007-09-30 03:26:55 [hometext] => no such thing as happyness or innocent smiles. Nothing is the way you believe it is. [bodytext] => There are no black and white
no colors
or lines between
love
and make believe

there is no reason
or recognition
behind stagnant
emotions

no anesthetic strong enough
to numb the pain
or smoother the
life flickering slightly
behind a blanket of fear

there is no cure
for the suffocating silence

the asphyxiating disease
paralyzing
and binding

no such thing as freedom
walled in on
all
four
sides

and s c r e a m i n g
because no one
can hear you

no sanctuary
from the violent
confines of the mind

hopelessly
deprived of will

there is NOTHING left
behind the curtain
to tremble in fear of

no more innocence
to twist with
dark intentions
or painful realities

nothing to confide in
or believe

accept
the deafening silence

falling back into a void
of thoughtless
and empty

where the strangled cries
of lost souls
are stolen away
without pride

never to be heard [comments] => 1 [counter] => 254 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Forgotten_soul [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Sorry there is such void in your heart, and soul
the write flowed and was sad
Hope the sadness can be dwelled away
Life will get better

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
