POEM STARTER
Inspired by FreeFly
The Dreadful Silence
Write a poem that could have this as its title or main theme.
Pin Drop
A pin drop could fall but not break the empty vast
Storms could echo through this room but not last
As the only echo is nothingness
The clank from the pin feels like the thunder
Roaming around the storms making a heartbeat pump
The beating goes around fast
But a life doesn’t last
Listening to the dreadful silence
I hear no more heartbeat
A pin did drop and did break the empty vast
Making my petrified scream last
A pin did
Fall.
Like the rain I hear muffling my ears,
Silencing myself once more.
Believing a pin drop fell breaking the empty vast
Storms could echo through this room and they last
