Darkness Comes

A Poem by FaeryQueen

on the spot

so much

pain

in the night

full of joy

tis'

was only a decoy

a fake

to plant something

innocent in your brain

a cover up

a mask

to hide

something sinister

the shadows on your wall...

they dance

like they've never

seen the light

but the world

at its darkest

struggles to survive

one night

a time

the moon rises

and falls

just like

everything else

your wishes

that whisper

wisps into your brain

disintegrate

at the slightest graze

of something dark

something evil

and chaotic

let your guard down

flow with the river

only they know

objects

and obstacles

of our demise

they can see

and hear

just as the rest of us do

lie down

close your eyes

let the moon talk nonsense in your ear

let him lull you to sleep

and don't wake

till darkness comes

You are definitely getting better at what is already as about as perfect as it can get. This is a lengthy poem but brilliantly written. Full of imagery, alliteration and emotion this is a great write. I love the structure, How do you do the structure and add the images? Maybe I should start adding some imagery to my poems and maybe that will make them better. Thanks for sharing such wonderful poetry with me I deeply appreciate your writing.
