Array ( [sid] => 76310 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Silence Whispers [time] => 2004-12-18 08:19:13 [hometext] => it has more underlying meaning then anything,it sounds jumbled so please comment [bodytext] => People look
but they dont realy see.
Not even my bestfriend realises
what is underneath.
Maybe the scars arent that obvious
as even sometimes I am blind.
Or maybe its that shadow,
that friend i hide behind.

If i had the choice
I would keep it that way
it gets too complicated
when I know this could be my dying day.
I Got no footsteps to follow
and none to leave.
The faith i once had
now doesnt exist i believe.

Ive grown up
living a double life.
Two families so diferent
yet so much alike.
Being torn between two worlds
but now they starting to collide.
What way im going to turn,
the verdict i have to decide.

If there was a line down the middle
that would be the one id take
coz now im going round in circles,
and loneliness seems to be my fate.
Laying awake at night
thinking about the end,
making it come sooner
washing blood from my hands.

When im alone
I hear the silence whisper
'nothing is what it seems
so hiding behind a mask,why bother?'
Now Im still going round in circles,
still blinded by the pain.
but now i show the truth,
scars all over my veins.

Sum people now ask,
why do i do such a thing?
only one thing i can reply.
silence isnt golden, its deadly.
when im alone
I hear the silence whisper. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 188 [topic] => 48 [informant] => bluebird [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I liked it. I can hear what you meant by underlying meanings. My voice definitely understood. LOL! BTW, it's not to jumbled. It sounds a little rushed, but I like that writing style because I don't like it when poems sound to polished. It's not genuine if you have to change a thought or a feeling. Thanks for reading my opinion.

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. ©
