[hometext] => First time user, would love feedback. I am total beginner at this.
[bodytext] => The sound of the TV is the only thing that breaks the silence When you know your loved one is filled with defiance Mom and Dad argue about what has been done Until you only hear the TV, no voice, no one Their words pierce my heart like swords Until I feel like closing my door and nailing it up with boards For he doesn’t know what goes on at home But why call it that If Trouble bubbles up like foam He goes out all the time Leaving nothing but clothes on the floor And as my parents watch the door Until they hear his shoes hit the floor They hold their breath Hearts are heavy Til he walks in, They are unsteady For maybe they have a guess on what goes on Or maybe they have to turn away To make it through another day For I am his confidant To whom he tells everything to But maybe it’s just what normal highschoolers do And then there’s the sound of the TV And one day their argument will go to far The secret world I have been hiding will unravel Like riding down a river without a paddle For toothpicks can’t hold up a life Until the day he goes to college It will be nothing but strife The ball I kick on the field The great friends I have isn’t enough For I long for the day When my dad doesn’t say Grow up and get tough Cause life isn’t easy son Until your work is done But the Tv still sounds As I look around for what’s next I want to send a text A cry for help But I can’t show that anything is wrong For who will understand I just have to move along And today I am not crying Quite Surprising Because the Tv still sounds With hope I am rising [comments] => 1 [counter] => 126 [topic] => 65 [informant] => Domination [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )

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. ©
