Darkness

by luna bella   Feb 8, 2007


A child lost in the darkness .
Just another face in the crowd,
A voice no one can hear
A cry for help that everyone ignore
An image that no one can see
A heart that aches and bleeds
A child's mind in an adults
body wanting to be seen and heard
Asking but not saying hoping
someone will notice.
A child found, not just another
face. A voice that grows stronger
with each smile. Someone
finally hears the cry for help.
The image can finally be seen by everyone. A heart that no longer
bleeds and aches. A child's mind
is no longer locked but free.
A sad face looking in the mirror
and seeing a happy face in
a world that is different; happy and not sad.

    Hate those types of comments ^^^ seems like they're not really readin the poem. Anyways on this line:

    "A cry for help that everyone ignore"

    Add an 's' at the end of ingore

    This:

    "A child's mind in an adults
    body wanting to be seen and heard"

    Okay on this I would have it be like the word body next to adults and then wanting... will have its own line so it'd be:

    A childs mind in an adults body,
    Wanting to be seen and heard

    Same with this:

    "Asking but not saying hoping
    someone will notice."

    But hoping on the next line.

    And ones like this:

    "A child found, not just another
    face. A voice that grows stronger"

    I dont really like when a thought is put on to the next line and it ends with a period. So the one like this try to not put a period in between a line, make one thought one line so it'd be:

    A child found, not just another face.
    A voice that grows stronger

    Like that. Oh one last thing, I think if you put this in stanzas it'd give it structure. Its just my opinions, I hope I didnt sound rude or anything I just wanted to be honest!
