Hiding Behind A Mask

I've been searching for answers I already know, wasting my breath on truth nobody will believe, maybe I do like to believe I'm the same, I'm just like everyone else, fighting back fears. My tears I wasted, on false beliefs I thought was love, my screams I've drowned, somewhere beneath my burned out lungs, I'm tangled in thorns, my body I'd convinced myself was made of stone. I'm sinking in the sea, an anchor my body is, stuck under water, there's a lonliness sinking in, nobody to hear me, nobody to see me, I'm behind a mask, my bare arms and legs covered in cloth, I can't escape, I'm under water, an anchor in the ground.

angeliki,

I found this article after reading your post on the writing chat requesting that people point out your flaws as you say you have a hard time with your grammar and make many mistakes.

This is a good piece. It's well written and contains great imagery and emotion. On the grammar front there is nothing that I think I can add. You just need to lay it out in a more legible fashion. Take a look at other poems and how they're set out in lines to assist the reader.

Otherwise a very good piece.

JD

I really like this too Angel and to prove we are all different - I like the way it is set out. I understand what JD is saying also!

Angeliki,

I can see exactly what your intention was with this piece, and approve of the way you have carried it out. It's not a poem in the conventional way, so should not be laid out as one. I am a big fan of the 'stream of consciousness' style, and of blurring the boundaries between poetry and prose to create interesting, unique, and original works. Keep it up!!
