Unpleasured eyes.. upon the moonlite memory
Covered alone.. with no sense of sensory
Cold stays...cold days...cold and clear
As my shadows stare.....into every mirror

Planting plenty..building nothing
Running away..striving somthing
Blackness begun upon all failed dreams
Gasping for greens heard but not seen
Holding close the stories of past foes
Emptiness has started but nobody knows


I really wanted to add to this but I thought different.  I kinda thought if it was short maybe it will be read into more.  Such as I am not wanting to be heard! Anyway what do you think?

I think that you ended it perfectly....as it being short it adds to the imagery of the Emptiness starting!
Maybe I read far more into things than most, but I think it is wonderful and so close to my feelings that I wrote in a poem called "The Nothing" a while ago!
**stands and claps**...more, more!

dwells in every soul...

Bojopy,
this is a VERY good poem, yes, leaving it shorter adds to the statment of your emotions,...I could feel the cold and emptiness, the loneliness this poem describes...Excellent work...but why do you wish to not be heard? Your poems speaks in volumes...you have a gift... thank you for sharing it. Take Care Janet Marie

It's 3am I must be lonely,
When she says baby,
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it."

I love the first part, the form, the rhyme scheme, and the words all over. Especially the "unpleasured eyes" and the repitition of cold.

Nothing wrong with a short verse. Sometimes it has more impact than a long one.
You are correct that sometimes nobody knows the emptiness we sometimes feel.
Nice work. Keep writing and sharing.

You got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
and show the world all the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That your beautiful as you feel.~~~ Carol King

Keeping it short cinched it in my portrayl.  You stated the facts!!  If emptiness has indeed started for you, remember it is not complete, you do have passions, and I'm sure many friends in the real world.  I guy like yourself would be surrounded by friends. Am I right?
