OK, I decided to post a poem here :oops: . One of my first ones so yeah... hope that you like it.

Slamming Doors and broken hearts

Slamming Doors and broken hearts
Pounded pillows torn apart
Hate and words, no understanding
All the while calm silence reigns

Dignity and stubbornness are ever present here
If ever I have felt this hurt, I have never known

My world has just been torn apart, a perfect day in ruins
Tatters of a former time where peace would reign supreme,
Memories of that former life, slip beneath, unseen

My anger pours out, pain made real
In tears I can’t control
Caught in the middle, it’d just not fair
Whatever are the chances here?

But In my heart I can’t make peace as the other party has
No concern, impassive face, I really do not know


Slamming Doors and broken hearts
Pounded pillows torn apart
Hate and words, no understanding
After that Calm silence reigns

Oh yeah I understand this all to well
Believe me!

You write with wisdom beyond your years
and such an emotion conveyed here within

"My world has just been torn apart, a perfect day in ruins

Tatters of a former time where peace would reign supreme,

Memories of that former life, slip beneath, unseen"

Lines 2 AND 3 were Brilliant just Brilliant!
