Screams

by Navy SweetHeart   Jun 2, 2006


Screams of pain.
screams of fear.
screams of hurt.

i screamed for help but know one came.
so i cried for help and still no one came.
so i took to conclusion that no one cared.

i wrote a note that was attached to my body.
mom came home late that night.
and cried at the site of my body dangling from a rope.

she looked me over.
then fell to her knees.
it was then that i realised...

how much she cared....
now i am sorry i wish i could take it back...
now it is to late and she is left with my empty bed.

    LOVE the opening of this piece...incredibly powerful and moving, and creating so many emotions for the reader that it makes for a beautiful opening and I can't help but be drawn into the piece.

    "i screamed for help but know one came."

    ^^ *No one came.

    I wasn't too keen on the meaning behind this piece though..I find suicide/self harm poems somewhat cliche, and they've been done so many times that it gets kind of old.

    However, I do love the imagery you put in here, along with the ending stanza, I found those to both be beautifully created and to hold so much power.

    Keep writing. You have potential.

    Awwww.. that is soo sad, i think this is one of your better poems actually! it contained alot of emotion, and the descriptions were pretty good (you could add a few more details and adjectives though) and so was the flow.. nice write! 4/5
