silence

preya SG

i can hear you
loud and clear
but you don't know

when thunder crashes
a million times today
words too loud
wanting no answer

so i stay silent

when lightning burns
spotlighting, highlighting imaginary flaws
a look of fury
too far for an answer

so i stay silent

when it ices over
to trap and drown and freeze
cold anger within walls
ignoring the answer

words tear at my throat
but i stay silent

and the rain is soft and
unoticed

Nice contrasts going on in the poem. Loudness and silence, and softness of the rain gone unnoticed.

Cool

Hello preya,

This poem is slightly too abstract for me.

However I do like its ending i.e.

words tear at my throat
but i stay silent

and the rain is soft and
unoticed (Spelling error)

Thanks for the read. Very Happy
