Carol, you've certainly articulated the depths of pain and anguish. It is a horrible place to be, and as you say, it feels like an empty heart crying out. Excellent entry.

    Someone unknowingly rattled my cobwebs this morning and these words came tumbling out. It was a long time ago and I have moved forward and discovered so many blessings in my life. Thanks for the review. Carol

Carol, this is a well-written Cinquain. This pretty much describes the poor girl in the picture. This is the same picture I've seen recently in another contest. Good luck in this contest.

Sometimes I feel so silly counting my fingers out loud when reading a poem. All I can say is thank goodness we have ten fingers. I think this is a very strong, deeply emotional, and tragic poem. You have done a marvelous job with this one. The illustration is perfect too. Good luck with the contest.

Carole as for the construct
of the cinquain, your right
on. Wow, what a heavy duty
write. Your words are almost
haunting, they resonated
very strongly with me and as
of yet have no idea why..however
this is powerfully written and
that could account for the
feelings it evoked. no nits..Lora

Oh my.... what a happy soul we are this morning. This very well written cinquain speaks loud and strong and portrays a very sad and lonely soul. There doesn't leave any room in the mind , for hope. The emotions run wild, with the fear of inevitable fate in one,so low, so utterly lost. No glimmer of faith, but total self destruction. The artisty conveys the very essence of this deathly feeling. Best of luck in the contest my sweet friend and I pray this is only fiction.... luv and hugs from Mel

Girlfriend What kind of mood were you in to write this its so sorrowful, full of grief and the face on the girl shown the black depths of help. Everything matched your words. I will not say that's the best you wrote because I know there's more coming. I would not change a single word. Keep them coming.

    Someone asked about the death of my son and it struck a chord, thus the poem. Thankfully, I resisted long ago and have found many blessings since. Thanks for the review. Carol

Hullo Carol ...

What you have written in this short work, with the syllable count all correct for the Cinquain format, is certainly a sad reality for many people who have suffered greatly in their lives.
There is nothing to suggest changing and I wish you well in the Contest.
With love from .... Nanette Mary.
