Silent

Silent is the battle
Within the soul
Silent is the demon
Playing the role

Silent is the wicked
Avoiding the light
Silent is the righteous
Continuing the fight

Silent is the hand
Feeding the rushed
Silent is the portrait
Hiding the crushed

Silent is the shadow
Tightening the bind
Silent is the sorrow
Clouding the mind

Silent is the storm
Bringing the rain
Silent is the man
Feeling the pain

Wow... I really loved this poem. I think its amazing and I see what you mean about the underlying meaning. Its very striking I think is the word I want. The lines short and heavy. So again... amazing.

this is a great poem but i think it will be so much more better if each paragraph u say silents one like silents is the hand feeding the rushed. It is the sorrow coluding the mine like that or something like that please read some of mine and tell me wat u think of my writings thanks

Thanks for the advice and I did think about using the word 'silence' instead of 'silent' however after reading it after I did that I noticed it took away the meaning of what I was saying. In this poem Im not talking about silence itself. As I mentioned in the description youd have to think about it to understand the underlying meanings in each paragraph. Aside from the last 2 lines every line has an underlying meaning. I could sit here and explain what each line means but I also think that takes away from what each line means as the reader goes through the poem.
At any rate thanks for the comments as well. Im glad you enjoyed reading this one. Its probably one of the more favorite ones Ive written.
