One of my latest poems... It deals with a moment in life when you feel rotten inside...

~ EMBRACED BY THE DARKNESS ~

October 24, 2012

 

Rotten is the day

The dark clouds covering

Everything in their wake

Including my heart

That has seen the decay of love

That has inhaled the stench of death

That has felt the sharp slicing of skin

Of words filled with life’s last breath

As the remains of the sun’s rays

Hide behind the silent night

Leaving me alone

To be embraced by the darkness

That will remain

Until you and I reunite

And the sun will wake once more

From its eternal slumber

From my book A Crimson Tide

As you know, I am very much "in tune" with these feelings that you share via your verses here, Lena. I must have missed this before although that seems unlikely. Love and best wishes,

Regis
