Thread: Behind my eyes.

  1. #1

    Behind my eyes.

    Love to hate what we love-

    Behind my eyes
    Black silence
    An old enemy
    facing me
    With a wry smile
    So familiar that he
    is almost a friend
    Been a while
    I say
    But in the end
    Fated
    The naked demon
    Thirst never slaked
    Only repressed
    A desperate need
    Never confessed
    Never a sound
    Just the seed
    Growing in the dark
    Irrepressible
    Unanswerable
    To the mind
    Only to itself

    Re: Behind my eyes.

    This entire piece was STRONG...
    Very short yet it didn't matter because your
    word usage and imagery was so strong..especially
    your imagery..gave that creepy feeling

    Behind my eyes
    Black silence
    An old enemy
    facing me
    With a wry smile
    So familiar that he
    is almost a friend
    Very strong lines "With a wry smile so Familiar that he
    is almost a friend"

    Puts a vivid image inside my head.

    I definitely like your style of writing scene it before
    however rarely used...In one of my English courses
    couple of semesters ago I've seen somewhat
    similar style however from reading this piece I must
    say nicely done

    The middle portion
    was strong and ended strong

    this demon having a desperate need yet
    remaining silent

    loving the set up

    This was a magnificent piece man. Really enjoy it. Wording was strong through out the whole read. Placement was nearly perfect and choice of words was incredible. The imagery was strong as well, painted a fable into my mind. Very nice job man. The emotion was beautiful. Really made me as a reader feel and enjoy the piece. Very poetic, yet very artistic at the same time. Concept was flawless. And the flow slid right off of my tongue. Haven't expected too much from you, but this was incredible. original and creative. Keep writing man, return the favor with "History Forgotten." please.

    yea interesting piece, had a sort of horror theme to it, like dark imagery and sharp words seemed to carry the swing,

    it seemed to sound good to me when whispered at a quite fast tempo,
    you had real nice word choices and some smooth inner rhymes which caried the flow,
    all in all this was a dope and complete poem, well crafted and pieced together nicely, dark imagery was illy, kinda scary even.ha

    keep it up yo

    Didn't like how stop and go the read was, thought some wording issues arose which disrupted the read for me, however this was a powerful piece and you did a good job packing punch into your words and making them matter. Pretty much every word was there for a reason which I admire. Solid drop

    edgy flow, but the rest of it seemed just fine by me man. Imagery was pretty straight forward and kept me seeing the descriptions you showed. The emotion could've been better, but there was some compared to most pieces with none. Wording was pretty straight. Overall a nice read.

    Re: Behind my eyes.

    This was good, i liked how I got a good image from it and the visual was nice. Very short and I think that was yoour only flaw. It went together good and I liked it all in all...

    Mic in my plam like the trident in the hand of Poseidon
