The strength of your name.
Your name is taboo..
As soon as it is spoken smiles down turn into frowns.
Happy conversation turns to painful silence.
Faces go blank, expressionless and numb.
The room feels colder, empty.
Even for that moment the sun looses it's light.
As soon as it is spoken smiles down turn into frowns.
Happy conversation turns to painful silence.
Faces go blank, expressionless and numb.
The room feels colder, empty.

This poem brilliantly portrays how a name or a simple word can provoke such dramatic responses.
Well done!

Nice to read, interesting
So much meaning, where the mention of something could change people's moods

who does it heal or who does it hurt?

This is a unique moment you've captured. Relatable in many ways. Id be interested to know the story behind it. Regardless, well written and really creates a feel when read. Nice write!
