Well when you talk about the children smiling lost and lonely I can only think about my older cousin who's dad ran out and hasn't spoken a word to anybody in years and my younger cousin who's mom is going through depression and when her mom has any strength left in her at all she is fighting with her husband. It's a really good poem.

I'm not really sure what this poem means.. but that doesn't mean that I don't love it =D I'm guessing it's a cry for help. In the last few lines and during others, that's what it sounded like. I thought you did a great job! 5/5 <3 <3

It's like a cry for help... to be heard more than seen. that's they way I see it. Awesome poem too!

Well to me it means that at times everyone can feel lost and alone.
good work

It reminds me of all the miseries in life and how I fell when I think about them or when I'm depressed... I just wanna scream sooo bad - make everyone hear me and stop the madness... but I can't... so my scream stays trapped in my chest and gives me a feeling like I'm out of breath and at the end it comes out as a loooong sigh.
