What crime,
What sin,
Have I committed
To endure a punishment such as this?
Locked in a room
No doors
No windows leading to the outside
No judge to adjudicate or family member wishing farewell
Not here.
Not in this metallic prison of lunacy
I have no voice
No hands
No means of expressing myself
And my suffering
Only my eyes and ears remain
My skin can feel
My tears can fall
My mind can think
But my tongue is conspicuously absent
My punishment?
Not a single hand will be laid upon me
I only need to watch the torturing of others
Forever
And I know that I will suffer much more before the end,
Because today is just the beginning

I wrote this poem for English class. We had to use a starter sentence from a list of phrases to open a poem or short story. So I changed it around and put the "opening phrase" at the end. I thought it was okay. A little deep for English class but...  I liked it. |

 reports, 1d 9h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Just a legend cold words on a page,
Lift up my eyes and I'm soaring away,
On silver wings spread out to the sun,
I'm leaving this city for the skies above...

Last night I watched you sleeping. Once more the nightmare came. I heard you cry out something, a word that sounded like a name. And it hurts me more than I can bare. Knowing part of you I'll never share...never know...
But still. I still believe...
