Silent Cries Of The Purest Heart.

by Teria   Oct 15, 2007


Silent Cries Of The Purest Heart.

Shadows glisten upon the walls, creating such beauty.
Forgotten children lie half dead about the ground in agony.
Screams fly from every direction and sweat slowly falls -
No one to remember, remember their very last calls.

'Pain is pain' replays over in each mind, hiding all honesty.
For, just this once [and many other times] pain is beauty
once hidden from a world of lies, now lying on the ground
in utter silence, since beauty makes no sound.

And, tears fall like they've never fallen before.
Silent cries of the purest heart on the other side of the door
whisper words of heartbreak from their unlived lives -
" Don't fret my darlings, they're only silent cries."

    Goregous. The descriptions, flow, the story that I got from this piece. It struck me as sad, and painful but also there were notes of happiness to it. Some of it was just the happiness would have been there, but is now lost and other is fresh still right there beneath the pain. Overall, goregous. I loved it, 5/5.

    Such a sad story being portrayed here; very moving.
    It's a given now that your imagery is second to none, you display your imagination so vividly again in this piece.

    The title really jumps out at you here, wonderfuly title. I'm very surprised this hasn't been read more.

    A poem more suited to my palate this one, flows really well throughout. I think the 3rd stanza is a really good way to end this.

    "And, tears fall like they've never fallen before.
    Silent cries of the purest heart on the other side of the door"
    Wonderful lines.

    This is my favourite that I've read of your work. I will definitely be adding this poem to my favourites.

    Very nice work on this one!
    [5/5]
