Do You Know?

by Siyabonga Ndlovu   Aug 6, 2011


Do you know a life of loneliness
and one filled with pain
living a life with nothing to gain.
Surrounded by darkness
Overwhelmed with shame. A life
without peace with no one to
blame.
Do you know of a place unseen, a
place that holds only shattered
dreams, A place filled with
sorrow with no end in sight, I
am given this gift each and every
night.
Do you know of a place so cold,
this is the place I call my soul. A
place without hope or
comforting dreams, a life not
worth living wouldn't it seem.
Do you know a life, that should
have never been, and the feeling
that today, this life has to end.
One more day of sadness is
much to hard to bare, I am tired
of living a life of heart ache and
despair.
Do you know a person with so
much pain inside, or the feeling
of loneliness when no one hears
your cries, maybe when the tears
are gone, and I can clearly see,
the only question left will be..

DO YOU KNOW Me?

    The title you chose definately fits to this piece and it encourages the reader to think and makes him curious wondering what he's supposed to know. Picking the line up over and over again did not get boring, I rather thought that it was quite nice and brought some structure into this piece. The structure is quite interesting in general and it's nowhere usual. Flow and rhyme are good too and the emotions in this piece are powerful and I was able to feel the sadness that you expressed with your words. Overall I think this is a good poem.
