Listen and I'm hollow.
All I had inside me
were the tears of my
internal rain
and all the blood
that's in the drain.
I wallowed and weeped in my disdain
and now my soul's a puddle of pain.

I think there is a creature
in that lake of lament.
It mirrors the make
but yet this creature looks content.
My knees give out
and I try to join the beast
I splash into the pool
but there’s no one to greet me there.
I dry sob the tears that I have not,
all my hope and light is spent
and my dreams and life ferment. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 443 [topic] => 48 [informant] => WorthlesSanity666 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Punch me again.

but there’s no one to greet me there.
I dry sob the tears that I have not,
all my hope and light is spent
and my dreams and life ferment.

I like this. It's decently written, and I liked the mood it set. I was a bit confused the first time I read it through, but I think that's because I read some words out of place. It's very good.
Well done. Keep up the good work!

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. Â©
