Slowly And Painfully.

by Spoken Silence   Mar 14, 2009


Once again it happens,
The feeling returns.
I thought I would have escaped it,
But no, I hear the silence drawing closer.

I can feel my smile start to fade,
My voice grows weak, I can't laugh.
Colors begin to erode to black and white.
I can feel it eating me from the inside,
Slowly and painfully.

    A short but emotional write, every line was filled with such imagery and sadness. I can tell you wrote this straight from your heart, nice details and wonderful wording. I wish it was longer because it was so good, but although it was short you satisfied the reader by the end. I like the title and how you put it in the last line of your poem. Nice job, 5/5 from me, take care and keep writing!

    God Bless You!
