Alone(Original Poem #24)(Writing Impact Challenge)

in #writingimpact7 years ago

So, this is my entry for @rensoul17 Writing Impact Challenge, I love doing these contests. So, today I've been feeling a bit under the weather, it's fine, I do have this kind of days from time to time, no biggy. But I decided to write about it. I am pretty sure there are four words here from Writing Impact Challenge words prompt. If there aren't, I'm really sorry @rensoul17 :'D
Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading, you should go and enter yourself <3


Alone

There is a wall.
Right there.
I can't see it.
Not sure if you can.
I can't crawl
Underneath it.
But I think that you can.

I look at you through it.
I see you.
I reach for your hand
But we can't touch.
Density of the wall.
Destiny of my downfall.

And then I hide.
I hide from myself.
I locked  up my dreams in a box
High up on the shelf.
Now only in void I confide.

Now I don't dream.
I don't feel.
I just listen.
To silence.
To you.
I'm home.
Because in this crowded room
I am still alone.

This is a very well written poem @iamflow. Thank You For Your Entry.

the narration of finding oneself surrounded by sound, by noise, by people, by commotion, but feeling absolutely, inexorably alone.

I know this well, I feel it in your metaphors, the impassable wall, the hidden self, finding silence in the noise.

Thank you for sharing, @iamflow, I know you are not necessarily the narrator here, but, please know, the narrator is not alone in this world. A world where people prioritize so many minor things, there is much to be found in silence, I know.

Believe in you, mate, and thank you for the share.

Thank you carmalain, I appreciate your understanding truly <3 Thank you for leaving a comment mate :D
