Without a trace

by Kaila   Feb 15, 2008


Screaming, ranting, drilling into my mind,
Searching, pleading, wanting to die,
Controlling, anger, building inside my fist,
Crying, saddened, nothing's worse than this.

Panting uncontrollably, trying to escape,
Digging nails into my skin, feeling as low as rape,
I swore I wouldn't do it, I crossed my heart,
Everything is falling fast, hard, and apart.

Sobbing into bruised fists, cutting hands bleed more,
Shrilling screams fill my ears, flying towards the door,
Running across the cold pavement, vacancy surrounds me,
Falling to my knees, breathing deep I plea.

Why do I have to be like this, Scared and alone,
A beautiful family sitting, something I don't own,
I know they'll know the secret, as soon as they see this face,
Unless I end it here and now I'm left without a trace.

    Great Job! This had a lot of emotion I really felt it.. Your rhyming was superb. And your vocabulary was amazing! I really liked your flow here.. everything just bounced along perfectly. My favorite lines were:

    I know they'll know the secret, as soon as they see this face,
    Unless I end it here and now I'm left without a trace.

    So much power and emotion, great job!

    The first verse of this poem didn't rhyme like the others that followed.

    I think that was the only problem I found wrong with this poem. Overall, it was well written. The idea, well, everyone writes these poems. The interesting part about it, is seeing how they write it. I thought it was well done.

    Very great write. Its truly fantastic... The way it flowed, the way you've used your words to create such an emotional piece, and the concept... So well-written and dark... 5/5 for a truly admirable write.
