    Hey Chelsey :)
    Unspoken wwords can hurt more than spoken ones sometimes even more. Heres what I got lol....

    I thought it was physically impossible
    to be stung by venom
    through unspoken words
    Experience, however, has taught me
    silent words scream the loudest

    ^^^^ I love this opening. You make it apparent that someone not talking to you is as painful as a snakebite..that really hurt more than if they had said something bad. I dont like word/words used twice here so I'd make the last line:
    Silence screams the loudest..

    Tormenting me with a quiet house
    filled with thunderous thoughts
    shaking me to the core of my being
    as I await any type of communication
    from you
    ^^^ Everything is quiet adding to the silence from this person and it is almost driving you crazy...

    Somehow in your twisted mind
    you find this will bring us closer
    I assure you,
    being in a conversation with myself
    only gives me confidence
    that I can survive on my own

    ^^^Absence makes the heart grow fonder or out of sight out of mind??? The silence is making you stronger though

    Transmitting empty messages
    gives me reason to believe
    I will have a lifetime of
    living with your hushed hugs
    and wishing for understanding
    of your silent speech

    ^^^^^You arent getting what you want from this person, I really loved hushed hugs Chels,
    makes me wonder why they are hushed..
    I hope they come around! Great poem Kiddo!

    Chelsey,

    I am a firm believer in the fact that actions speak louder than words, and when nothing is said, a thousand other things say it instead...

    I loved this piece, the strength was in the wording and the flow was smooth and transitional which really brought me into the piece

    You always have a way that captivates me and makes me feel what I read

    Love it

    "I assure you,
    being in a conversation with myself
    only gives me confidence
    that I can survive on my own"

    that was such a wise statement.
    now, I wanna Quote you...

    damn Chels,

    youse been growing as a poet...
    your pieces seem to have been getting,
    more honest, more direct, more harsh if I may say so, its like you sound sarcastic and angry and bitter all in once..

    Keep it up Soxii!

    Great piece~

    Oh Chelsey I loved this poem. Such a strong piece filled with emotions and heartache. It reminds me of the silent treatment where one person in the relationship or friendship does not speak to the other and pretty much ignores them. I've done it a few times. It could be also that this is a relationship where the two people are just not in the same place anymore and it's more routine rather than love. What a sad and heartbreaking piece!

    Loved it

    I dont' know what to say other than what you already know things happen for a reason and most of the times, they happen to prepare us for something better. This one was heartbreaking piece.
