Focus on Noise

She is running but not fast enough. This person is catching up, and she thinks her heart is going to run. Then he ties her down and rappes her. then he leaves and she is so embarrassed that she leaves

Click, click, Click

The moment i have to keep running

Because he is humming

the further i run

the closer he comes

Tap, tap, tap

the feel of the wind

makes me want to bend

in the touch his skin

thump thump, thump

It is pounding

you hear it in the surrounding

it is going to come

but i can't run

zip,zip,zip

i am tied

and i can't hide

the touch of him inside

makes me realize

i am done

he is now gone

Leaving me broken and blue

now i can't face you.

So now i will leave

Author's Note

This can cause flashbacks if you have trauma in your past. I suggest you also be a little bit mature.

Nice rhyme scheme, the eerieness is multiplied by the short sentence structure causing it to be read in a halting way that makes each line seem a power sentence. My only criticism would be with the ending, your poem builds what seems to be what is going to be an explosive end driving a positive message for your readers. So now I will leave is a little weak compared to the rest of your poem, maybe another line or two more telling of your threatening to return stronger and more determined (it could also be that I am a sucker for strong endings :~) lol. Great poem I am looking forward to reading more of your work Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!

I don't do much poem writing. I am a long story writer.

A poem is just a story told in a few lines, it is also great practice as it can teach you how to capture emotions in a few lines which is great for subplots that you don't want to spend a lot of time on. This can be a great place to learn and expand your writing skills and showcase your talents and creativity I hope you have great experiences here :~)

People who knew terror and rape. Deep wounds that cannot be healed easily. The words honest, direct and left reader in sad place with the woman. Thank you for sharing the powerful poetry and thoughts.

We do what we have to to survive this type of atrocity. Yet, those noises make us cringe. Your use of sensory images gives this piece an eerie movement.

[Inject Positivity]

This really reaches to the core... It speaks of a story of past which is painful to read even for me as a reader... You spoke it very well through your words, the intensity of the situation can be felt... It is very sad and heartbreaking...

Sincerely
