I've been down that road of silence,
I thought I was insane,
I pondered finding love,
Hoping it would chase my fears away,
Though I was blind in searching,
Hoping I could see,
Someone out there,
Who could love me for me,
More of a mockery,
As I wept tears of pain,
Thinking I had found something,
Yet it only slipped away,
Memories drive me to the brink,
Of dissillusioned thoughts,
How could I have ever thought,
That I could find someone with a heart,
A heart filled with happiness,
A heart that could be mine,
A heart that breathed love,
Until the end of time.
I was wrong,
I know this now,
To fall in love again,
Upon my heel I turn..
To tread down my silent path again.
Ordinarily, I dismiss such poems without much more than a glance, but this poem is definitely of a higher quality. Perhaps it's the more complicated use of words, disillusionment, and other emotions that make this poem stand out. Good work.
I wish I could say more, other than 'I like this'. Moody work appeals to me, and.. I dunno, I'm so.. NOT good at poetry, so I hae no good basis to judge. Eh.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
