first post.

I figured I would make one of these. A few of my friends have them and I thought it would be a good way to post my writing and poetry and such. Hopefully i will be able to keep up with this, i am intrigued by it.

here is some writing for today, i wrote it for a friend who needed it for school. What a good friend i am, damn.

the topic is silence? I don't know but this is what i came up with. enjoy.

I will choke the words down my throat.
The words I would once voice to the world,
Are now rendered useless in the back of mind.

I want to stand up and shout to the heavens,
But my legs are shattered and my voice is shot.
My mouth is moving, and nothing is coming out.
This is my life on mute.

Here I am, subject to silence.
Not the sweet golden silence,
But the gut wrenching awkward silence.

The type of silence that can only be found when institutionalized.
The type of silence that if exposed to for too long,
Will drive you to that same institution.

The eye’s of my peers are seeing through me.
Seeing nothing more than an empty soul, without a voice.
Without a choice, I am silenced.

If only I could break the silence,
Drive everyone to a halt,
And whisper the words that mean the most…

With my voice I am everything,
I will raise and voice my cries.

Thats it for now, until next time.
