Fading Star Silence Poet Free verse

Acquire

drifting in a zestless world of hypocrisy, 
aching to dispel the lunacy 
echoing with distorted imageries,
held in a bastille of utter carnage;
I’m abundantly devoted to 
breaking free from what enslaves me. 

acquire

wading through the necrotizing tenor
that binds me, 
steadfastly drawing near, while
teetering on the confines of 
my perilous mind and altruistic heart— 
prodigiously culminating. 
Taking back what the enemy stole.

Silent One April 12, 2026 at 11:30 AM Your poem feels intense and emotionally charged, with a strong sense of inner struggle and a desire for liberation. You create a dark, almost suffocating atmosphere. I like the shift toward determination at the end, especially the idea of reclaiming what was lost. it has a compelling voice and a clear emotional drive. Fading Star Silence April 13, 2026 at 1:01 AM Thank you so much, my dear friend! You’ve truly captured the essence of my internal roar! Trying to turn my struggles into a blinding light, breaking the chains of despair. Absolutely a dark and suffocating atmosphere, where I once stood. Fires ablaze, fighting the blackness that once enveloped me. Thank you so much on your always inspiring feedback. It’s truly humbling to receive from you! Deep gratitude for your understanding and deep thoughts!
