Faces

Faces,
Edged with
Tired
Crying
Hands

Yielding
Only
Unpaid
Regret

Hands holding
Emptiness.
A
Result of
Tyranny


*An acrostic poem that falls on my heart these days.

  1. Poetry is something that really speaks to me, and I like how you crafted this. The end grabs at me especially, "Hands holding emptiness." I identify with this too much. Wonderful piece of writing!

  2. I like this a lot. I enjoy the space left for my brain to fill in details around the sparse text. I love the T for Tyranny...it fits with other T words I could conjure up.
