Darkness Has Fallen

Darkness Has Fallen

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

Sometimes, the way things seem

"

 

Woke one day to a world I didn't know

 

Visions of struggle, visions of change

 

Visions of warped reality;

 

like a fun-house mirror without the fun

 

Darkness has fallen; a sinister silence all around

 

Sounds so foreign, so different,

 

echos of silent screaming

 

Sounds I can not see; my vision obscured

 

by doubts, like trying to make heads or tails

 

out of a foreign language screamed at you

 

by unseen monsters; I woke to a never-ending

 

nightmare that just goes on and on and on

 

I just keep clinging to the fantasy

 

that I'll open my eyes and everything

 

will make sense again, because right now,

 

nothing does

I write for fun; I write comedy pieces and some dramatic stuff. I have no formal writing education, and I have a fear of being told I suck, and maybe I should give up on writing, and get a job makin.. more..
