Welcome back to the freewrite Poetry Digest brought to you by @wandrnrose7.
We are pleased to continue to share with you the unique and beautifully written poetry created from the freewrite community hosted by our own @marrianwest.

Day tomorrow we will close this Celebration contest on day 50! The writing has been fabulous and truly revealing.

@milrosas, from our Spanish freewriters brings a heart-touching and soul-moving poem written to the prompt **Suffers In Silence. I have taken the Liberty to translate it through Google translate. I hope you enjoy! We did.
This post is almost at post payout at time of publishing.

At nightfall, thoughts come and go. He who watches the sunset hide, sees only his face, his smile, that moment in his mind, whenever the breeze spoke to him. -Why did he leave? Where did he go? - He asks the moon, without any response. Since that day, many tears accompany him, that from within, they are consuming his torment. He loves her, but being sincere, she is happiest alone. His walk is aimless, his nights eternal. The sun turns dark, for him, a sad condemnation. In his world everything is slow, because although his emotions shout, he still SUFFERS IN SILENCE.
@jakim is also a Spanish Freewriter. This exceptional poem is written to the prompt players. Below is the English version from Google Translate.

PLAYERS
In the game of the life
everything is possible to happen,
dreaming we are dead
and alive when we die,
we are the players
of our destinations,
the dice are not loaded,
the king has not died
the queen still lives,
chance is a reality
life a utopia,
that is born and dies while
we play on the wheel
of life, we bet
to dharma and earn the kharma,
we bet the ying
but the yang wins,
we bet on virtue
and the sin dies,
we win in love
and we lose in pain,
the day comes and the night wins,
we pray to unity
but we are duality,
in the chess of life
who wins who dies
and loses who lives …
