Emotions
May 29, 2012
Sorrow, Frustration, Isolation...
Revenge
builds within me.
There are people who
made me who I am.
They try to rip me from my happiness.
My eyes are red everyday,
I cry everyday,
I think about what happened in the
PAST
and what is happening NOW everyday.
I might as well be dead
with a black crow or even raven
sitting on my gravestone,
but I will not rest in peace.
The sigh of murder and death.
They say:
"the eyes are windows to your soul."
My soul is clouded with fog.
This fog is my revenge.
I silently wait for the
Sorrow, Frustration, Isolation... Revenge
of my day to come.
My tears shatter
as they hit Hell
while I see what comes before me.

Oh, that makes sense. Just thought you might want to provide more clarity on the end. Not trying to be difficult. :)

i don't say what i see whats comes before me, because it is up to the reader to come up with reasons of what would make the character act the way she does- it's one of the purposes of poetry, not being forthright about everything, it allows up to think, you are suppose to think, which then enables to expand to your mind.

Mysterious poem. A disctinctive tone to you--established well through your words. Truly a great poet. Powerful and dramatic, certainly, like Apollo77, said. Amazing imagery. Not sure I understand the ending. What do you see that comes before you?? Confused. Other than, it speaks with clarity and intensity. Great work. Would you please comment on my poems titled Without the Writer, Angelic Beings, and Hidden Deep Within?
Now I only feel sorrow and isolation... and just a little bit frustrated
