In the Darkest Night

Contributed by jerseysue on Saturday, 2nd February 2008 @ 07:00:59 AM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



In the darkest night, there was no moon
The creature crept into my room
His presence chilled my very soul
For I knew that he would take control


He watched me closely, he stood by my side
I wanted to scream, I wanted to cry!
He took my hand and beckoned me
To follow him where I would be free


I created a scene , I screamed let me go
But this creature told me it had to be so
With an almighty force he lifted me from my bed
I was scared and frightened, and so full of dread



We travelled for hours, through darkened streets
I wondered what horrors I was about to meet
I guessed his appearance had scared me you see
But in reality I think, he was very kind to me


He talked to me about life, and what memories I had
Of good times and bad times, happy and sad
We then reached a crossroads, and he said I must choose
Which road I should take, I leave it to you


One sign said to heaven, one sign said to dwell
The other one said Hades and the last one said hell
I was utterly confused , what did the creature plan
Was I choosing my fate, I did not understand


He then looked at me, and I realised
My time on earth was up, it was time now to die
He was no demon, but my spirit guide
He had come to take me to the other side



I have no illusions , I have not always been good
I could not choose my road, but hoped that he would
He looked at me , his eyes shining bright red
He said I am the devil, and to hell you will tread



So I took his hand, and I chose my way
A feeling of dread , was inside me that day
Hell is my home now, for all of my sins
And in the darkest of night, I was taken in

Wow. Chilling. Dreams often have a way of revealing our deepest inner fears, and whether this was one or not, it's a great story of personal choice and fear of the inevitable. Fantastic write!
