Winds (Cry) of Destruction

Contributed by bobotheclown on Sunday, 4th May 2003 @ 02:05:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



A howling wind echoes over the roof tops
Houses shake, their foundations crack
Kids cry, and cover their ears
Their faces white with terror
Mothers scream, their shields crumble
As they whimper wishing to hide in a deep hole
Fathers quail, they break, unable to
Protect their families they curse the air
Trees are torn from their roots
And tossed about like a beach ball
The darkness is grim and heavy
Settling on those like a cancerous sore
The silence whispers down the empty streets
And gnaws away at life itself
Sirens go off, men jump at the slightest sound,
As they peer into the inky blackness
Myself, I sit here and scream
Unaware at the destruction and pain I bring
Only realizing myself and the pain that festers
Inside this destroyed shell of a man

Too close for comfort to the hell of an insane mind.
Nobody could like it but it is a tragicallly good write.

I agree with the others about how intense it is, and know only too well where you're coming from. I really like:
The silence whispers down the empty streets
And gnaws away at life itself
take care x_x_x

Yip I loved it. Yet again I loved another of your poems. You always leave us with that feeling of shock at the end of your writing and the poems always stick in my head. You have a great way of making them memorable. Good work ^_^
