A thunderous silence breaks through my thoughts. What was once many great ideas is now a triumph, lost. Baffling words tumble through my mind. Reflections of darkness hover. A disturbing peacefulness beckons to me, and inside myself, I take cover. What would it be like to stay there forever? To be lost in all my cares? From the inside, looking out- I cry silent tears.
Reason for writing:
I wrote this poem at a very bad time in my life. I was insecure and afraid to express my feelings. I kept it all bottled up, and then I would go into a private room and cry. I was always afraid to let anyone see me cry because when I did, I was rediculed and punished. I've learned never again to fear my own feelings.
