I am not them
They are not me
They are blind but yet they see
Everything
They are not a part of me
And yet they are
They cut me lightly yet always leave a scar
Why?
They are the blade
They are the fade
-ing
That sifts through me
Stabs at all I see
I can bleed
I am bleed
-ing
They are my creations
They are not themselves
They scream, silently, please help
Him, her, me
and it

Hello it’s IvoryRose! Here’s what I interpreted from the poem. A person feels isolated from everyone because of their depression. The other people can’t see or understand what they have, but they can see that something is off. The poem features heavy drama and leaves an impact. Poetry is up to interpretation, so there isn’t just one meaning. That’s why it’s considered an art form because it is expression. I didn’t understand the line “the fade-ing.” Did you mean that the person is slowly loosing them? At least that’s what I got from it. I felt the line “I can bleed” was a little unnecessary since it was followed by “I am bleed-ing”. I thought it was a great poem to read and think about.
This is a very well-written poem, and while I do not understand what this is about, it really takes a stab at my heart. Great job!
Thank you!
This is really good, while I may not understand the gist of it, I loved it nonetheless! I think you did a great job, you really spoke from the heart, and that's what I usually look for in a poem, anything really. I look for the deepness, spiritualness, if that's even a word, and then the heart-felt. If I don't see that in a poem, I have nothing to say, but this was absolutely amazing. Keep writing, you ave a place here in YWS and it helps that you know what you like to write about! Great job! I hope you continue making these types of poems! Keep up the amazing work!
Hi! Thank you so much! I was particularly proud of this and I'm glad to see you like it too. ^^
