Description Whispered words run through my ears,
Confirming my absolute w o r s t fears.
{Just like I'd silently hoped}

Soft, mumbling voices,
They tell me of despair,
They tell me of death,
And I just wish I could r u n .
{Far, so, so far away}

I need to leave m y s e l f ;
I need to get away from this horrid torment,
The torment I'm putting myself through,
And as always love, it's all for y o u .

I'm letting myself suffer,
For someone who shouldn't matter,
I'm suffering for someone who m i g h t not even be real.
{Yet if you are, that makes this suffering worth every last agonizing millisecond}

My sanity is s l i p p i n g away,
Fading off into the d i s t a n c e,
As I crumble into myself.
{Dissipating into n o t h i n g}

My screams fade away,
Into nothing more then a soft w h i s p e r,
As I fall to the ground,
Trying to f o r g e t,
All that I've become.

I love how you use the spacing, italics, and bolding to emphasize. And the italics with the brackets make it seem like the speaker is whispering. Was that your intention? It's a beautifully crafted poem, truly wonderful.

Thank you! The formatting is something I do to make the poem become more powerful, and it takes quite some time to do x3

With the subscripts, they're more like an after thought to the main stanza, and yes, they are meant to be more like a whispering in the back of one's mind :3

And thank you once again

I totally disagree with ~moondrums , i think the formatting makes it amazing. (not that it wouldn't be amazing on its own ) because with the formatting, it's almost like you're reading through the insanity, not just reading about it. I love this.

Spuffy12 In reply to commonstrosity [2010-11-24 21:01:07 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much :3
And yeah, I personally love reading poems that have special formatting, I think it really adds something to it :3

No prob(: and me too. Most of my original word document poems are formatted, but I hate taking the time to format anything beyond bold and italic on here, so i don't usually have cool formatted shit.

Spuffy12 In reply to commonstrosity [2010-11-24 23:36:37 +0000 UTC]

I like to mess around with my formatting, lol it gives me something to do, and I feel like it adds more to the poem, and helps the reader understand the emotions better :3 So, I take the time to do it :3

moondrums [2010-11-24 11:24:06 +0000 UTC]

this is really great,
but kaaaaandyi~
so much decoration makes it really hard to read.
like, i can't focus on the words because all i can see is how they look.
i think it almost detracts from the meaning of the poem. D:

but really, it's a gorgeous poem
and that's just my opinion.

Spuffy12 In reply to moondrums [2010-11-24 20:08:43 +0000 UTC]

Well it's hard for me to not want to emphasize everything. Because so many words are so important, and I feel like I must emphasize them, so I make them be purdy
But I understand what you mean :3

And thank you my dearest :3
