Responsibility



"Czy ty mnie słyszysz?"


Does the booming sound ever reverberate
in the shallowness of your empty shell, the way it does me?


"To boli"


Does the sharp string of endless wails
cut through you, the way my consciousness is continuously sliced?


"Wiem że boli, ale jestem na skraju"

Is to bear this, something you would condemn your brightest sun with?

Najwyraźniej tak.

    Wow, what a powerful and thought-provoking poem about responsibility. The imagery and emotions conveyed in each stanza really hit home. I can feel the weight of the burden being described, and it's truly impactful.

    As a suggestion, perhaps adding more specific examples or personal anecdotes could further enhance the reader's connection to the theme of responsibility. Additionally, exploring different poetic devices such as rhyme or meter could add some variety to the structure of the poem.

    Overall, this is a fantastic piece that captures the essence of responsibility in a beautifully intense way. Keep up the great work!
