Silent Criticism

Pain and love tore at my heart

Break me

will my actions in this moment ever justify my inner solitude?
Or will you continue to eat me from the inside out?

Bend me

As the brisk winter air shows evidence of parted lips I dare not speak
For the wise are of no words
Leaving nothing to question
Nothing to hide

Mold me

Basking in the silence of a new era
We breathe softly
Leaving no evidence of weakness

We are the dead

Living out one destiny
Molding one fate
We are what we make of our lives
With this I am content

Criticism is dead
You’re nothing but a complication
Of no use to a world of no words
Denounce me nevermore

you talk justification alot, which leads me to believe,you're too knowledgeable for your own good- people like us get trapped in our own heads... it's a double edge-at least theres gratification through praise on DP because you're brilliant... (Sue Zen)
