Silence, blankness, overbearing,
The mere thought of it, despairing,
As I raise my arm to the sky,
I am forced to ask, why?
Conveying thought on paper,
Reading expressions, stored for later,
Lips move slowly, pitying glances,
Silenced, I make no advances.
The ability to project through ink,
Granting me license to think,
Burning through the blood-red haze,
Penetrating others’ feelings with my gaze,
Despondantly cursing the world,
Resentment, spinning away, twirled,
My eyes give the anger away,
The eternal affliction, here to stay.

This one's about a friend of mine. He can't talk, can't express through words...this one's for him.

Very good
Your anger at your friend's situation really comes through in this poem, but also hints at acceptance near the end. All in all a very fluid poem with an easy reading style
