Poem Commentary

i just wrote this because its all i could think about and i needed to get it all out.

memories

The heartbreaking silence is clawing at my mind

The unvoiced screams and cries of desperation

Play over and over again in my head

Like a virus infecting my mind

The traumatizing memories come

Rushing back to me all at once

I lay there in the hard, cold floor

Submersed in agony  

Drenching myself in tears

As if to purify my body or

Wash away all the dreadful memories

That has haunted me since it happened

I find myself trying to imagine what happened to you? I wonder if you told someone and went to someone that could help? I wonder if you told someone what you left out in your poem, I hope so. The glimpse you give us of your torture is compelling and I find I want you to use the strength I know you have to look for support and protection to end the abuse and empower you to live the life of a young woman that does not have to live defensively.

You are strong and a intelligent writer. Some talents need to come throug, I hope you allow yourself time to work on your words and to self express. School will come, but you have more to write. Let it all out. You seem to hold something back.

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
