The first two lines here were a pefect use of sound devices. When I read this out loud it just naturally flowed off my tongue and I was left wanting more of its beauty. You grouped the words nicely here and everything had its place. Without one word or sound device, the poem would be incompleted. I could see your hard work through this and its deserving of a *5/5*

Very deep & intensly sad. What a beautiful job you did on this piece.
Excellent!
Love Cindy

Kaylee,

I agree with Cindy: very deep and sad poem. I am glad you changed your mind about the not-writing part:)
I have this feeling your star will rise very high someday, sweethart.
Just hang on in there and don't lose faith in yourself.

Hugs,

Ingrid

This poem was
so beautiful,
it had a really tragic and sad beauty
to it but never the less
it was stunning.
Loved your use of words
they just made it so deep
and powerful!!

Short and sweet just like the poems i love to read

Short, simple yet so deep, only a talented poet like you could do that, this is an amazing write for sure.

great write dear

all the best and take care

Very unique and an insperation indeed.

Wow. This was short. I really expected it to be longer, but maybe you're still working on it..? Anyways, it was still wonderfully written. It -almost- reminds me of Edgar Allan Poe's writings. The haunting atmosphere filled with despair.

A silent pen drips from my hand,
Drips remnants of my former scrawl,
With a lingering whisper of Lithium.
`` This last part is my favorite, because I got the feeling that it's about writing poems [or something] about past depression or troubles, and I could definitely relate to that. Or maybe it's not about that at all, and I'm only bending your words to give me the sense that it's somehow about me. I tend to do that sometimes.

But, I liked this. Your word choice was amazing.

Keep writing!

After reading 3 of your poems and comment on the first I felt decidedly sad and after reading you profile wonder how a young woman of your age had not written one word of joy, I know your thing! Yet there is so much love, joy and happiness in our world try it. Maybe you are one of the few unlucky ones who wallows in sadness and gloom. I love life to much to stay in a place without warmth especially when a poet obviously has so much talent. Try happiness as it really does make life worth the effort whereas gloom drags you down with itself.

I loved the description of the pen dissolving in your hand and the texture you created from your dripping words speaking softly and fluid in your ear. incredible ability to transform a solid object into hauntingly beautiful imagery and texture. brilliant write. 5/5

Oh and by the way...i love evanescence. she's the vitality and beacon of music, period. without her voice, my soul would wither. the title was appropriate too. kudos to you! hugs
