About the Poem

This poem is about how melancholic people are shadows, forgotten in death and the anger that comes without love.

Shadows

An unnoticed identity clouded,
restless beneath your feet
sorrow life years buried in dirt
billions of cares unforgiven.
Scar a lifeline on granite stone
living wasted nothings
These unspoken distant calls repel,
dying seeds of hateful notes
Use nitrous pins to expose
this evil flesh inside
revealing impure fragile wings
that can't ever be hidden
Yourself seen towards judgement
flow an ocean of tears seeping
downwards to Hell.

this is a nice poem. i like it. i can relate to it through my own experiences and feelings. it's nice to know something that can explain how i feel because i can't write good poetry and i can hardly explain my feelings as well.

Not to sound monotonous, but simply because I can't think of anything more true to say with my tiny vocabulary: This is absolutely marvelous.

I read your poem and I have to say that it is one of the very few poem that I can read and get some kind of idea of what the person is feeling. The poem is one of the best that I have got to read. Now, one of my personal favorites. I am just glad that I am not the only depressed soul in the sad little world.
