Screams I want to let out,
Rage I want to let loose,
Words I want to say...
I live in Silent Corner, Earth.
I want you to stop screaming,
And listen to me.
I chose my words too carefully...
I didn't get out
What I wanted to say.
Things to tell,
Whispers to be heard,
Thoughts to be seen,
I live in Silent Corner, Earth.
I let you vent all you want,
As sit there frustrated.
You don't give me a chance,
To say what I want to say too.
I can't get out
What I want to say.
Holding back,
Resisting,
Repressing,
In Silent Corner, Earth.
Too many things happening
That aren't my fault.
It gets taken out on me
You won't let me get out
What I need to say
Sitting here,
Thoughts clogging
From too much held in.
I Live in Silent Corner, Earth.
Author notes
So I made up Silent Corner, Earth because I fell like that is where I am...Because of recent events, I can't say what I want without it being held against me. I can't believe I am beginning to feel like mind is a prisoner, with thoughts trapped inside in silence. And I can't talk to anyone about it because "I'm not allowed" I know that sounds childish, but it is sadly true...
let me know what ou think...

I really liked this write and your true emotions really did seek through...that your not allowed to express your feelings is so deeply sad writing poetry upon how your heart feels helps get some of that trapped emotions out...also if you would like to be apart of a movement that's all about expression gaining hope and inspiration then please visit http://www.myspace.com/brhspower much love Raneika I am an advice columnist so if you ever want to ask something or get feedback on antying feel free to hit me up anytime

"thoughts to be seen" what a wonderful phrase. I wonder why you are not allowed to speak what it is you wish to speak. If you are not allowed to speak, you are allowed to write, just use a metaphor and let the thoughts escape

this was fantastic. wow. i loved this. i could really sense the frustration, like even in this poem there was something you couldn't completely say. like, you wanted to add more to your sentence but didn't because you were just internally venting or something. i dont know. but this kicked serious ass. great job.

a beautiful poem, showing very well how you feel about yourself. it clearly shows your feelings of helplessness, like no one else is listening. its got the same sort of vibe as one of my poems; distant memory, checkit out if u want. ur poem is a great write keep it up.

You have such an inventive style! Very unique and quite refreshing! There is such an amazing power in the imagery you have woven into this piece - so very surreal. I really enjoyed this Excellent phrasing and poetic restraint combine to make this an accomplished poem--I thoroughly enjoyed this piece, well done! I am glad I read it. thanks for sharing. Keep up the great work. Best of wishes to you. good luck in all that you do....peace always in all ways.

Hi, loved this write but think it would be better to say "In a silent corner" just a thought, we all feel like this at times so, many will relate to this write, all the best, Di

I understand the exact sentiment that is expressed here. I understand what it's like to not be able to say anything because I am "to be seen and not heard" until I was about.. 19 years old. I am now 22. How sad, eh?
I really enjoy the use of repetition of "Silent Corner, Earth", but it sometimes seems to interrupt the flow that has been established. Then again I'm kind of retarded for the musical pace and flow of poems. No worries.
Thank you for writing this though, I enjoyed it. -
this is a very well written poem. i thin that everyone has lived in silent cornor earth at sometime, and it is an awful plac to be. i will pray that you may escape from your prison.
-
not so bad--really!
its true, your mind is always a prisoner trapped in a calcium cage.
the poem wasn't too bad really.
write on.
