Silently Screaming
by Fritz Barnes → (All Poetry by Fritz Barnes)
  
Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook

Thoughts and theories
Decisions and doubts
Principles, priorities
I can't sort it out.

Mental gyrations
Feelings flip-flopping
Confusion crescendos
Starting and stopping.

Keep moving forward
Minor revisions
Planning the future
Major transitions.

Powerful people
First impressions
Who can be trusted
Discernment, discretion.

Illusions of confidence
Wheeling and dealing
Showing no weakness
Having no feelings.

Burning no bridges
Avoid all mistakes
Constant improvement
Whatever it takes

Nocturnal tossing
Daydreaming, scheming
Swirling confusion
Silently screaming...

Nicely written piece that makes we wonder, were we meant to live this way? You express here what I think we all feel as we are expected to grow into the "real" world.

I've had nights like this. This poem gives me the impression of lying in bed, but the bed is on wheels on a gradually increasing incline, and the wheels are rolling faster and faster and there's nothing to do but hold on and ride it out.
