Writing My Own Requiem

Contributed by Dark_and_Cold on Monday, 10th October 2005 @ 04:39:19 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Darksome night
Losing sight
Staring in a shattered mirror
Stood it all, didn’t fall
Still I’m chained by fear.

Burning light
Burning bright,
Nothing is all that is clear
Standing tall, as I crawl
Knowing the end is near

Soulless kite
Fallacious might
Fluttering on the ground
Stuffed and shot, sold and bought
Searching for what can’t be found.

Bitter in spite,
Angry in fright.
Screaming without a sound
All is fair—in despair
With strife my days are wound.

Futile to fight,
No hopes to unite
A price that I must pay
Lost control—of my soul
No longer will fate delay

Black to white,
Wrong to Right
As the world fades away
Blank stare, to mask my terror
It ends in a swirl of gray.

This is the fourth time i have read this poem today. I was not goint to leave a comment but i think it is fair to do so.

This is well written, you have talent. (I hope that you use it to encourage ) You remind me of two other poets on site Neptunes_First and Vitreous_Soul your style of writing is closer to Vitreous_Soul's style. I am recomendig them to you so that you can find poets who write similar to you. You can thank me later.

i love this poem

maybe im just being silly but my first thought was
this poem is the antithesis of Star Light Star Bright

dungeons are very chilly places
but so are clear autumn nights ...

  • Really enjoyed this one.
    The flow is lovely, and the rhythm is great this time, too.
    If you’re going to rhyme, try to keep it consistent though.
    You have a lot of changes in your rhyme scheme,
    which causes faint trip-ups along the way, but you still managed to pull it all off nicely.

    Again, I found the ending very powerful in particular.

    Thought-provoking (and obviously dark) piece.

    Nicely executed :)

    That was hot!!
    I see that gray is your relief. Between two powers Black and White.. people?
    Neutral

    Black to white,
    Wrong to Right
    As the world fades away
    Blank stare, to mask my terror
    It ends in a swirl of gray.

    I have to commend your talents teach me your secret. I write too but not like you...
