In the shadows

Contributed by deathbringer on Saturday, 9th November 2013 @ 09:31:40 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



it's been too long since I've written anything, and I hope this is a decent enough piece not to be flayed alive(I jest, I jest, seriously though, it's been too long and I hope both my spelling and grammar have improved in this long absence from writing poetry)

In the shadows did it lay
Whispering softly that I may
Find the hubris in my soul.

In the shadows did it whisper
Gently stroking on its whisker
So I may fulfill my role.

In the shadows did it help me
Offered arm that held me gently
And kept at bay the gaping hole.

In the shadows did I stumble
Startled by a distant rumble;
Lost my footing and I fell.

In the shadows did it hit me
Evil scent that cannot be
And found myself a guest in Hell.

Very interesting poem, soft lulling mood carrying the words that give you hints of the contrasting meaning of the words to the false security of the mood leading you to a powerful destination. Effective writing.
