Black Ink Poetry

Curtains of silence close
my existence covered in darkness
I'll speak no more
forced into isolation
you think to shut me down

fools

I'll evolve in solitude
though your madness
steals my voice
a poetic mind
can not be silenced

so fear me

I'll write your eulogy
in black ink
on the canvas
of your hardened soul

I liked the angry, directness and powerful use of the language. I believed every word. A outstanding poem.

The pen can stick as well as a sword. We will not be silenced. Yours is a rallying cry to be let loosed.

I have felt this way before. As someone wished to silence my pen. Jealousy is an ugly trait. It is best to ignore negative thoughts. ~ Brandy
