Scars of Claws

Eye of the tiger Eye of the wolf I see shadows Through fog and smoke Whispers of dark Whispers of light Will anything be alright? Only darkness captures me Stars to guide me As I plea Can someone see me? Invisible to all I'm not a know it all Only the eyes of the predators hunt me down Their words like claws Only to leave scars in my head No way to get away Only able to pray Is there anything I could say?

Lexi, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
