He posts a poem
He sits and waits
Hoping people can relate
To the words on his pad.
He posts a poem
He keeps eyeing for comments
Hoping for critics and commends
To show his words have value.
He posts a poem
Silence.
Finally peace
With his internal demons,
He posts a poem
To silence the torment
His words completely absorbent,
Killing each demon within him.
He posts a poem
To extinguish the flame
That is to blame
For all his sadness and despair.
He posts a poem
Not for anyone else,
But for himself,
A seemingly innocent task
But an internal cry for help.
HELP!!!...
Silence,
Once again
