Description And I call out
Out to this stone hallway
And I cry to the ceiling I can barely discern
And all I ever hear
Is a recurring echo
Echo of my cries, my own desperation
An echo rebounding from the concrete and stone
Unforgiving
Relentless
Not to be moved
By mere emotions

And I cry
To these unmoving walls
That will never react.


~ dedicated to the crying girl at the railway station

I love it. It doesn't fool around with unnescesary words, just gets straight to the point. Very deep, raw emotion. Very good.

I think it is very clever in it's understated simplicity. I really like it 1R. Like Colleen, it makes me think of a prisoner, although to me just a normal prisoner, not one in an asylum. I really think it is beautifully written. Very clever.

Sie wollte sich aus diesem Wahnsinn durch die Schreie retten.
Und dennoch verhallten all ihre Töne ohne jemals gehört zu werden.

Schreib öfters, du schreibst schön. (-:

Well I think it's well written...though I probably got a different image than you intended. I saw a prisoner in an old mental asylum, suffering, screaming out for help to deaf ears. It definitely paints a strong image so I rate it as quite good. And it's not 'yet another overdone lost love/depression poem'. I do get tired of those.

thanks. yeah, I guess it'd be kinda hard for me to write a love poem since I've never BEEN in love but I do get your point. I get tired of those too...
hmm. you're right. it does sound like a prison. crap. I just hated the way a person can sit in a hall full of people and nobody reacts to her sorrow, just walk past. At least I sat down and offered her chocolate... was the least I could do really, since I suck at consoling people or anything.

But chocolate is the master consoler! Odd how it actually works with the chemistry of the brain to have that effect.
