The Outcome

The Outcome

A Poem by Rachel
"

very dark, yet has the use of extended metaphors and visual imagery

"

Darkness crawls,

it folds around him,

dragging along.

A dead limb,

"what's wrong?

I come in Reverance."

He calls to be known,

but Silence drops down,

crouching, towering,

above all, except

a Scream.

It escapes,

runs along the walls,

but falls short of Ears;

for they don't care,

they go along their way, their Life.

It runs with Eyes,

they too, ignore it,

for they want Beauty,

not Pain.

But Pain is real,

and knows Darkness well,

and also Scream.

However,

It begins with Darkness,

for it can kill Light.

And he cannot fight.

I agree... I do believe in the darkness as well as the light. For we can't survive by darkness alone there has to be a light to equal it out....Well stated write
