Question: Does this poem make sense!? What do you think it's about!?
I want to see if i'm getting the right point across
Ping Pong Game
Childish games,
With no conscience or insight
Court surrounded by chains
An inescapable fight
The years of happiness, a painting close beyond the bars
Stared at for hours, by something covered in scars
Heartless and unfeeling anger,
As the paddles smash the ball
Object telling them where they once were
Trapped in between of the brawl
Something between the commotion
Inching to the end of its rope
Has no feelings or emotion
Through the eyes of its only hope
The bruises of the ball
Are stored deep inside
Impossible to recall
How many tears it has cried
Being tossed back and fourth
At such a young age
Being used in the wars
And being trapped in a cage
The paddles never understood
And back and forth it’s tossed
All faith in a childhood,
Is hopelessly lost
The smashing of the hits
On an already dark bruise
Inside is torn to bits
betrayed and abused!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wow girlfriend!.!.!. I didn't know that your sweet demeanor held back such strong dark feelings!. Can this have something to do with the divorce of your parents and you being in the middle!? Whatever the case this is a good piece of poetry!. Even more than that it seems to be therapeutic and will not only entertain those who read it but will serve to release your pent up anger!. Peace&Love to you my dear Mystica!.!.!.~M~Www@QuestionHome@Com

I really liked it!, A childhood game being seen as something more like your relating the game to human emotions and experiences!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
very heartfelt!. I get the meaning: It's you feeling like you're being forced into two different directions or life, and you hate it!. The paddles are people and the ball is you, being crontrolled!. I like the metaphore :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
