Silence fills my ears
And flows through my mind
It keeps me awake at night
Keeps me wondering why I am all alone

With the silence comes darkness
And with the darkness come the tears
And the silence is broken
As my sobs fill the air
And I cry myself to sleep...

*~*Amanda*~*

My tears roll right down my cheeks, but they all soak into my pillow.  I feel kinda sorry for it...

Well i know all to well how you feel.  They say silence is  golden but i think a lot of people fear it more than respect it.
But dont worry things will look up

This is very sad. I felt this poem hit me hard. Well done and I hope you get better.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I personally felt that too many lines began with "and."  This is tough to get around.  One trick is to use different introductory conjoining words.  (I do this all the time with "and," making it "but" or "still."  But don't tell anyone!   )
Still, I think this had a unique structure to it and the way that it trailed off had a nice effect.  Well done.

This was so sad and i could personally relate to it so this poem really hit home for me. You put so much meaning and so much feeling into so few words it was just amazing. Good job
