Her pleas were ignored
You were trying to keep them silent
As the waves crashed on the jagged rocks
As if she were a soul
Trapped in the angry ocean
You ignored her cries and her screams
As she was being pulled in deeper
And would be eternally lost from the world
Everyone knew
When you turn your head
You quickly turn your face
Because of what you saw
Hollow face, dark eyes
Just staring at you, her icy stare
As if to say:
“Why did you put me through this misery?”
In your dreams when you were deep asleep, she
Haunted you
The scene on the sandy beach, her knees covered
In the water, wearing a tattered dress
You can’t be free from her silent cries
In your mind
Her silent cries, her silent pleas,
Are no longer heard.

Dark and mysterious. It gives me an insecure feeling, which I like. Nice.

So Awesome!
I fully agree with Feb its good to get the darkness into words I always love reading your poems and this has wonderful imagery. I am glad you are exploring different areas of poetry its wonderful to see. My favorite stanza was:
" When you turn your head
You quickly turn your face
Because of what you saw
Hollow face, dark eyes
Just staring at you, her icy stare"
Keep writing Hope your are really talented.

Nicely done.I like the fact that you're trying to right dark poetry .I don't know if you've done it before ,but it's good .I like the imagery .I don't think it's abstract ,but it's kind of dark.
