Finding release through written words of pain,
strength to fight gone with life's persistance,
left raging at the world through uncried tears,
knowing my temptation is destruction and release.
HEartfelt words appearing on screen,
crying not for sympathy,
but only for understanding.
lt hurts, and others know this;
theres no reason to be truly alone.
Music an empowering companion of strength,
a reason to go on found
through the words of another,
shutting out the outside world,
living inside a mind none truly understand,
searching with futile persistance
for the love of another,
someone to keep the loneliness of guilt at bay,
for at least a night at a time,
though age and family prejudice
say it won't be found,
drowning in reality when the blanket of sound
blocking pain is finally unwillingly removed
and life becomes unbearable,
finally dying as you only survival is jerked away,
without sympathetic warning.
Do they truly not understand what music is to you?
You face death in the silence you hear,
resounding inside your ecoing mind,
your only physical release blocked
with the lack of inspiration...

Wow...I really like this. There may be a few spelling mistakes...but other than that, it's very good. It flows very well and is a very expressive poem. Really nice job!

As I smile at everyone else, I'm dying inside... ~Me
