About the Poem
Digital Passions has inspired me to think more about this description process. Initially, I thought it might detract from what I was trying to say in the poem but in this case I can see the value. Everyone carries pain inside them and sometimes the reliving of that pain in your mind can be quite a physical experience almost overwhelming.
Walls |
| by Lloyd Klumpp |
| No space around me Stifling walls Closing off my view Numbing thoughts Aching soul Suffocating dreams Memory stirs Pain wells up Trapping me again Nowhere to go But inside myself Devoid of any aim Too scared to move Barriers raised Hearts freedom restrained Tentative Withdrawing hand Fear of hurt again Thick breath and clouds Within my head Oppressive atmosphere Numbing thoughts Aching soul Suffocating dream |

I like the poem cause it sounds the same way I'm going through. My ex-boyfriend cheated on me . we was going to do so much together he lied. Every time I get around another guy I cant trust them. I allways think they are lieing too me. But anyways it's a very good poem.

Thank you for sharing this poem. it spoke to me. it spoke of my struggle, often unexplainable in words. You described it well. Others really do feel like I and we are not alone.
