Amethysts

You make me see myself

 

I close my eyes

 

Too deaf to see

Too blind to hear

I speak

 

To drown you out

 

There is a cave

Of amethyst, of

Purple crystal shards

 

Diamonds cannot

Cut it

 

I hide here in the dark

 

You cannot see me

 

You cannot touch me

With your light

 

Deaf to your pleas

I wait

You may not enter

good piece.

The imagery is great, and the form and format flows well.

Your emotions are well imparted, and the imagery was painted real well.

A wonderful piece

I'm just loving this poem, a lot.

"You cannot see me
You cannot touch me
With your light
Deaf to your pleas
I wait
You may not enter"

It reminds me of the relationship I have with my mother. It may not be what you intended, but it's what I got. I really do just love this poem. Brilliant. =)

Wow I love this to bits...I agree with Raye...it is your protection and yet you still yearn to be seen, because it is a substance that can be seen through if someone special takes the time to look and look again.
"I hide here in the dark
You cannot see me"- such powerful lines!

Wonderful write

It's like the amethysts are your wall; your protection...
