Poems
Oct 2015
Darkness
Darkness clings to shadow
Because that is all it knows
Shadows cling to day
Because then is when they show
Roses spring from meaningless seeds of lust
Desguised as love
Ravens fly towards mischievous men
And hopeful women attract snowy doves
Cyanide blood flows
through crooked veins
Hateful clouds hover over
Rustic plains
Despite the feeling of hope and care
There is always the feeling of fear and despair
It eats away at our parchment skin,
Our hollow hearts,
Our cracked bones
We become empty,
Confused and alone
As we wither away,
Turn into dust,
Fade into darkness
