Listen
Obey
Bow your head
Kneel down
Don’t cry
Not a single tear
Why are you shaking
Like a withered leaf
Dont!
No more sobbing
Why are you crying
You have everything
Don’t you??
Tell us
Or dont
Just obey
Smile
Or dont
Just obey
And don’t you dare weep
Like a pathetic fool
You miserable piece of shit
And then
You obeyed
You bowed
You froze
Your tears
Behind burning drapes
You smothered
Your screams
In your throat
That stabbed
A thousand holes
In your defeated soul
You smiled
Yes you smiled
For those eyes
To see
Your fake perfection
But you knew
You looked
Like a morbid wooden puppet
Stiff and Grim
Aloof and Empty
Just like
Their Forlorn philosophies..

At first you’ve listed all the sad stuff, then you added hope and lightened up the poem. At first it leaned dark, but you changed the tone later. Am I right?

Nope..its black bad sad hate..pure morbid till the end.
But everybody takes away something different from poetry so maybe thats what you felt. Its not wrong 🙂

Truth! How often in life are we told to “sit down and shut up,” “suck it up and deal with it,” or “no one want’s to hear your problems,” and then slap a smiley mask on our face to hold in the pain.
We have to rip of the smiley and let the pain out, or the soul will not deflate…it will burst!

Wow, it doesn’t seem like it at first but there’s so much imagery in here that creeps up behind you until you become the very hollowness of the poem itself. Of course, I’m an optimist so I bounce right back. But, just for a moment, I could trully feel the morbitity it conjured up. Sadly, this poem is all to relevant to the human existence. But it’s always good to have hope as well.

true. if we don’t have hope this morbidity pretty much claims our life. I am glad you are able to bounce right back a lot of us just succumb to it.
