PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

A dangling chain above my head,
A hidden reminder of words unsaid,
An unspoken truth of lies untold,
Those eyes spill the secrets of a guilty soul.

I have traveled the path of emptiness,
On a trail of dark dead wilderness,
In the shadows I thought I saw you there,
Sunk in and hiding, I thought it queer,

I walked to you as if you cared one ounce,
It is then that the tiger inside announced,
The danger that lurked ahead would kill,
Through the eyes of treachery I can feel you still.

Turn back the animal inside proclaimed,
But I shushed her, now I’d gone insane,
I will face you, I will or I shall die,
At least this way I can say good bye.

Beneath the bushes I could see your face,
Hidden and distorted, you seemed misplaced,
As I drew nearer I realized that you were not there,
But the creature that was grabbed hold of my hair.

Into the forest and into the night,
The shadow fell over me like the blinding of light
Sitting in the darkness, here all alone..
The walls start to talk to me.. this is my new home.
