how cowardly I wept
for the silence that crept

And how do I believe
I'm owed a reprieve
from a need to bereave

I live for silence
I dream in violence
I loathe compliance


Unsettled by memory
I'm shielded in mockery
a callous monstrosity

Unstable by nature
furthered through nurture
a crumbling structure.

Intense write well structured but one comes to expect greatness when it is attached to your name.

this write seems as though you are trying to explain to yourself something you already have figured out…. I liked it for its intensity and the brief but potent lines rushed the words by effortlessly.

Well executed

As always-

I'm not sure I could ever properly put into words, just how relevant this is to my own self-perception.
..such a frightening comparrison, that it's almost too much to comprehend..

phew..

I looove that third stanza!

I enjoyed this little diddy even though it's listed under sad poetry.

I too am unstable by nature.

Lastly, I can see why I missed this original posting as that time period was a very VERY sad time in my life. But I saw it now and thank you for posting an enjoyable read, even though it's years later. Was seriously not getting into a lot of what I read tonight so just thought I'd drop by the guarantee page of the Scorpendous one! It worked. Thankies.

can write about it,
