i am in front of this computer screen, reaching out to anyone
hoping that maybe a stranger can grasp what loved ones cant
wishing for the answer that should be within me somewhere
my fingers shake as they stroke the keys
e a c h letter holding emotion
e a c h word holding a breathe
e a c h sentence telling my life
sitting here, looking at this stack of blades
thinking of words, that will hit so deep my blades could not touch them
going through each blade testing it to see which one will be worthy
which one is going to get the job done
pushing my pain through a strainer
making what is small and big combine
creating one huge massive ache
but also making just enough room
to shove more agony into me
i just swallow it down every time
hide it away with every line
hoping that some day some one will see
through all of these words and into me
In a list

Wow this a really emotional piece in depth. Its nice to see someone can express their feelings through poetry in such a way.

That sounds so tortured and torn. Pushing pain through a stainer, turning many pains into one big combine. I wish I could reach out to you with more than words. It's sad we can't put a hand out and touch people to let them know they aren't alone.

I honestly hope you are not writing from personal experience....if you are then just do know that I am here for you with anything you may need, even if it is just someone to listen but this i can actually relate to... Sometimes we just reach to someone, but they turn away...

emotional and painful. i can see both of those attributes well penned in this poem. and life sometime does get like that, that we are willing to ask for anyone's help - if if it be an online friend, just to get them to understand where we're coming from. nicely done.

a true and emotional write...remember that there are people here who have gone through the same thing willing to help you
peace, love, & cheese -
emotion, emotion, emotion. your metaphors and imagery are amazing, i could picture someone shifting through blades (and it was eeriy) a beautiful and heatr breaking piece.

omg. i love this. it is so true. i fight the same battle so to speak. i like how you compared getting through pain to a strainer.

What an emotional work of poetry. You expressed your feelings of frustration and pain quite well. THANKS for sharing this and hopefully things will get better.

This is a curious piece. I'm hoping this is imagined rather than an actual emotion.
I like the starting lines. Fave is:
"pushing my pain through a strainer"
Well expressed. Writ on and one.

This is a cry for help. It puts me in mind of an updated version of a message in a bottle. Put the message in a bottle, seal it and throw it out to sea. Reaching out to find who will find your message.
This piece here is the electronic version. The emotion portrayed in this is very very powerful. It is indeed, beautiful - yet dark at the same time. I am here if you want to talk. You are a wonderful writer.
All the best
