The Unspoken

Those unspoken words,

Trapped behind those pale lips.

The missing chirp of gentle birds,

Silencing the soul as it rips.

The silent cry it cannot say,

That heart whines in pain.

A danger without pay,

For it, everyday has rain.

Alone in thought,

Destruction tolls in its heart,

A tragic fight it fought,

Not yet won on either part.

Those words unspoken,

Dangerous to all.

The heart of the broken,

To be caught when they fall.

Author's Note

Just something that came to mind. Hope you enjoyed it! :)

Good poem =)
Might i make a suggestion, try not to use the same words within a close proximity, like the first two lines, each with 'those', and u have silencing & silent.

you remind me of sara teasedale my favorite poet so why dont you write more poetry?

[BrynnaW.]

Thank you very much. I can't express myself as well through poetry it seems and I've been having more trouble at thinking of ideas or at least forming them into something more in depth. I think I might write another poem soon. I never really thought my poems were that great. Thank you for the review! :)

[Tate Morgan]

you are welcome you are very good and i like this poem I rarely like the poetry here You are an exception

[BrynnaW.]

Really? Thank you so much, means a ton.

Poetry while I see it as a tech challenge has to have heart and touch anothers soul

[BrynnaW.]

Wow, so true. That's why I've had trouble with finding ideas for poems. I want it to be deep and thoughtful so that it makes someone think or feel the emotions coming through the poem. Did this poem have a heart and/or touch your soul?

[Tate Morgan]

i thought it did I always do that with mine actually i like to get the idea first then write the ending then the rest

[BrynnaW.]

The ending is what really binds it all together and leaves the biggest impact.

[Tate Morgan]

yes it is the key to the whole piece and it must teach us something or convey a truth in feeling
