~ The Cross road~

Contributed by shelby on Thursday, 3rd July 2008 @ 01:39:57 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



It could almost be a nightmare, that leaves you fearing sleep.
The moment when you are running, but stuck in invisible quicksand.
Road, pitch as tar, no moon or stars for guides,
an inner rumbling volcano where hurt and unrest reside.

Feeling spooked in your own skin, wearing uncertainty like a glove.
Suffocating silence where answers do not seem to come.
A web wrapped tight around you, holding your arms to your sides,
not knowing whom to trust, or where to run and hide.

The wolf in lambskin knocking at your door, rattling the locks.
Wearing the mask of someone you love but are they who they say they are?
It is everything mixed up, and scrambled into one lone pile.
The end of the road at the cross road, no signs no moon no stars.

You know just how this hit me. A very intense, emotional piece.

Thanks again for being there.
