Silent Cries of the Purest Heart

Silent Cries of the Purest Heart

She knows it's wrong, but trudges ahead
The game he plays, runs through her head.
The bad feels so right when he's around
What lifted her up, has now let her down.

Too much older, the wisdom unfair
To a childish mind that craved his care.
A heart so fragile, so easy to break
She was a giver, and he would just take.

Attention she wanted, he gave it for free
Minus the cost of her integrity.
Her soul was held in the web he weaved
She saw the truth, but wouldn't believe.

Tossed aside were the doubts in her mind
It felt so much better to act as if blind.
But now the danger lies in his reach
An innocent girl led by deceptive speech.

She tried to warn others but kept it inside.
The damage she'd suffer said she should hide.
The pain inflicted is tearing her apart
But no one hears the silent cries of her heart.

    This poem is so sad and touching, but in the end it shows there was a lesson learned. No matter how bad a situation as long as you can salvage something from it- a lesson learned, a growth point, a different perspective, etc. then it is not a total loss. I always try to find the good even in the worst situations/traumas-though sometimes it is hard. The poem itself has an excellent flow and a perfect rhyme scheme and really conveys so much emotion and meaning. A great poem.

    Peace, Poetry & Power,
