Silent Cries

Closed off from the world
Looking for an escape
When will my reprieve arrive?
I seek the truth
But it evades me;
Like a small child playing hide and seek

I peer out into the night
Contemplating everything that's occurred
Trying to make sense of it all
A silent tear slides down my cheek
All seems hopeless

So far from where it started
I try so hard to feign a smile
But my eyes speak the truth
Nothing will ever be the same

My world; crashing down before my eyes
And all I can do is stand back to watch it all unfold
Hoping that one day
The pieces of my soul will be glued back together
And once again I will enjoy living

Wow, depressing...

I'm impressed though. I liked this alot, though it was sad...I hope you're not really feeling like that... I loved the second to last stanza by the way, for some reason it just sounded nice to me.

Thanks :^) No worries, I don't really feel like that... it's actually about a friend and something they were going through. I pictured how they were feeling and put it in their point of view.

It's sad.

I sympathise with it, I like it because I can relate to it and it captures the emotion pretty well

You really have a way with making a poem so meaningful and to write it from someone else's perspective is incredible.

I agree with Anna, I can also sympathize with it.
