Well done.

I gave this one a 5 since it processes the marks of deep thinking, even though some of the terminology could be interpreted differently by different readers and perhaps they would arrive at a conclusion other than the writer intended.

I took this to mean a man is doubting himself because of rejection due to his good intentions being misunderstood.

This is a great addition to your book of poems. Loved the art work you chose for this awesome writing. The poem was short but very well crafted and thought provoking.

The strongest line was

"What good is a man to himself when his soul is denied?"

Nothing much is available to you if your soul is denied (lol). Excellent artistic presentation with a terrific picture to bring your point across.

I also liked "translation of unspoken words".

An enigmatic and thought-provoking write.

This is just amazing, our life is ruled by misunderstandings, those unspoken words play culprit in ruining relations, well being...well yes it has surrenderd itself to stress, depression. Extraordinarily written.

What good is a man to himself when his soul is denied? That is a good question, yet his soul is only denied if he refuses the salvation of Jesus at the cross. This is really good.

Deep philosophy centred around a man constrained to the fetal position withdrawn from himself in self-denial, misunderstood, mind lost. self-protective features suspended if not lost forever.

Hi. A rather pithy wee poem. I like the question style.
And no answer, well no laid out answer. Truly lost in unspoken words, deeds...truly lost.

I enjoyed this piece. I think you really call into question the nature of man and what represents worth and the despair of one who feels worthless. Overall I like that you took a non-traditional approach and thought the picture you used was excellent. Great work overall, thanks for sharing.
