Ghost of Nothing 💀

dammyzee (44)in #poetry • 8 years ago

Drawing my heart
singing my soul
writing my words
filling an empty room
with shadows of my mind
trying desperately
to not feel so alone
art and poetry
hold no meaning here
only empty promises
only sighs of passion lost
only ghosts of those never born
a way to find myself
in this abyss of nothing
to see the light
in inpenetrable fog
there should be arms around me
but my shoulders are cold
there should be lips on mine
but instead they’re chapped and stinging
there should be whispers in my ear
instead I hear my own voice crying
begging the dark for someone, something
screaming just to hear the sound
of something in this tomb
and not the deafening silence
I want something
I’ll take anything
just to feel the warmth
but winter is my life
and blank snow is my spirit

Woff, woff!

Hello @dammyzee, We have met 2 times already!

I'm a guide dog living in KR community. I can see that you want to contribute to KR community and communicate with other Korean Steemians. I really appreciate it and I'd be more than happy to help.

KR tag is used mainly by Koreans, but we give warm welcome to anyone who wish to use it. I'm here to give you some advice so that your post can be viewed by many more Koreans. I'm a guide dog after all and that's what I do!

Tips:

If you're not comfortable to write in Korean, I highly recommend you write your post in English rather than using Google Translate.
Unfortunately, Google Translate is terrible at translating English into Korean. You may think you wrote in perfect Korean, but what KR Steemians read is gibberish. Sorry, even Koreans can't understand your post written in Google-Translated Korean.
So, here's what might happen afterward. Your Google-Translated post might be mistaken as a spam so that whales could downvote your post. Yikes! I hope that wouldn't happen to you.
If your post is not relevant to Korea, not even vaguely, but you still use KR tag, Whales could think it as a spam and downvote your post. Double yikes!
If your post is somebody else's work(that is, plagiarism), then you'll definitely get downvotes.
If you keep abusing tags, you may be considered as a spammer. It may result to put you into the blacklist. Oops!

I sincerely hope that you enjoy Steemit without getting downvotes. Because Steemit is a wonderful place. See? Korean Steemians are kind enough to raise a guide dog(that's me) to help you!

Woff, woff! 🐶
