So, lately I have been leafing through old poetry for the purposes of editing, and I stumbled over one in particular… I was wondering if the ending is clear enough. And in general if the poem is too confusing. And plus whatever critique. (:

Phantoms

They know not where they came from,

They know not where to go,

Forever trapped in silence,

Forever they are so.

 

They are merely phantoms,

For they don’t understand,

And hope has never been there,

To come and hold their hand.

 

To wade the world with nothing,

To stare with grayen eyes,

To wander, lost among the souls,

And everything despise.

 

Life is filled with pain.

So numb yourself to love,

For how can your heart be broken,

When it is locked above?
