Silent Tragedy

The world is shutting me out and I can barely breathe A vicious cycle that stabs my heart I don't understand what goes wrong I just want to disappear to make it less painful to just start my life over in a whole another world I'm screaming inside and chocking on my tears but no one sees it

Unfortunately, many hold in thier pain. The title is fitting for your poem. The first and last line fit well together for a powerful message. How often we are blind to another's hurt. Interesting poem for reflection. Karen

Yes, the title fits the contents of this write so well, while the meaning of the piece reminds me of my youngers years. You express yourself clearly and so well. Use your writing, as it will help. Michael

Corinne - Your poem is well written but what sets it aside is the outstanding way that you express your true feeling - no doubt this was hard for you to write and you did it very well - Blessings
