Numb [I Have Become]

by Normal is the Watchword   Nov 22, 2007


Tinted Earth: Blocked in masquerade
Brick stacked on Brick on Brick...fall
Cemented in Forever's Eyes
Too numbed in Ice; Yesterday's tongue
Of Language spoken
Of Anger signed
To petals broken then left behind
Crushed in wind, which refused to calm
And the numbness I've become

Based on:

and the Linkin Park song Numb

[When we're forced into who we do not want to be, and the walls are closing in on us, we can't speak for nobody would listen. To our hurt from their anger. To our innocence lost and broken. And to the darkness in our lives which we become.]

    Once again another piece of art. What I really enjoy doing is picturing this. It makes me think of those strange short movies that have no purpose at those film festivals. Ya know what I mean. They're so random and seem strange but in truth they have deep meaning. Your work is just a pleasure to picture. Just wonderful. Five. I am convinced that for you to write something that I would hate would be very difficult and nearly impossible to do unless on purpose. Great job.

    A nice combination. Although the flow was cut off in some points and the poem didn't seem logical, I found this piece interesting. Nice job 5/5
