Screams

by master of shadow   Feb 15, 2006


Screams of those who cannot feel,
Those whose lives are no longer,
Who exist and nothing more,
Those who will never leave here,
Forever trapped within these walls,
Trapped within these corridors,
Until the end of their days,
They scream for freedom,
Scream for the chance to feel,
To be able to live,
To have a life,
a reason for their being,
But their screams are all but ignored,
Their strife cast aside,
For they are here for a reason,
And this is widely known,
The screaming will long continue,
The begging for release,
Echo though the corridors,
Bouncing off the white walls,
Heard far and wide,
Heard but not listened to,
No matter how loud they scream,
Here they will remain,
Trapped and never to feel.

    This was really good. But.. I'm not sure where these people are trapped. maybe if you explained where they are, it could be better. Enless you mean like people who have already passed. Either way it was a fantastic piece. Write some more, Cause I'm running out of poems that I can comment on lol. 5/5 =P

    I like the beginning few sentences,and the middle one:But their screams are all but ignored.and the ending:Heard but not listened to,
    No matter how loud they scream,
    Here they will remain,
    Trapped and never to feel.
    The whole poem is good enough.

    This is such a good poem! It is very descriptive and emotive. The flow and rhythm of this was really good and it held up well.. My favorite part was:
    The begging for release,
    Echo though the corridors,
    Bouncing off the white walls,
    Heard far and wide,
    Heard but not listened to,
    those lines really stood out to me and gave a feeling of loneliness. Great job on this!
