Array ( [sid] => 145048 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Your Invisible Dagger [time] => 2008-09-09 13:23:38 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I had so many hopes for that day
And as usual they were dashed
With a smile and a laugh
You picked up your invisible dagger
And repeatedly plunged it into my heart
I could feel its feeble beats
As it struggled against the torment of your words
And fought against your malicious actions
What you were doing was unfair
Especially when you knew how I felt
I looked into your eyes, silently pleading you to stop
I doubt you noticed my pain for you kept going
Laughing and smiling, enjoying the moment
Though my insides were collapsing
I tried to keep my outside uncaring
Like you, I smiled and laughed
What a great joke
Pretending I was your girlfriend
Willpower and wine got me through the night
But then you wouldn’t say goodbye
Did I do something wrong?
My emotional barricade could take no more
It crumbled with the weight of my feelings
And I cried for my tortured soul
And your heartless one
No one but mum saw my tears flowing
And I was sure that no one else noticed my suffering
I thought I’d succeeded until I saw the photos
My face had betrayed me [comments] => 3 [counter] => 271 [topic] => 75 [informant] => jessb3 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => anguished )

Your poetry concerning the invisible dagger is mesmeric. We are amazed as we sit here in these robes at our desks. And we applaud softly in order to not disrupt the beauty in your tragedy. We wish you better days than this. You have the heart of a poet.

May an invisible troll come from under your bed tonight and nibble your toes.

The Ghost Alarms

Lots of emotion cries out to the reader in these words. The pain you feel is deep and you let the reader into your heart. Nice job.
