Silence (Act IV)

by Rusted x Heart   Jan 24, 2006


The broken features, lay clothing the floor,
A sickening masquerade for the weak,
Weakened, weakening and the still unweak.
Shattered pieces left behind, unnoticed,
Vital elements of the missing act.

Denying truth hidden beneath the lies,
Never has there been more fit an actor,
To fit the true protagonist of life,
Never more fitting to a surreal breath.

Forcibly a piece is recollected,
And another thought embellished within,
Another piece follows another thought,
With another thought, another action,
And so the downward spiral commences...

The silver screen wears thin, all truths exposed,
And so the show goes, no curtain call left,
One final applause to numb the silence,
Silence, silence, silence, silence, silence...
No pieces left, all that remains...silence.

    Wow. I loved your vocabulary and the way you described this. Awesome poem all around. It was a cliche topic, but your words were beautiful and it wasnt all "I want to slit my wrists/ and then I'll die/ beauty cannot emit/ Oh why do I have to cry" It was deeper then that and it was full of raw emotion. Keep it up!

    Excellent poem. You started out pretty well, the imagery used there is outstanding, but then you started to repeat yourself...a lot.

    I still like it, it is most definitely different from what I am used to reading.
