Writing Poems is my fave of all!
Darkness
As darkness falls all around,
No shadows left playing, on the cemented ground,
There is an emptiness she has found,
Alone in the silence, there is no sound.
Trying to escape a life and just let go,
Finding it hard to really show,
That inner self, her inner glow,
Afraid to be free and let life flow.
It is getting darker, both outside and in,
Why does it feel so cold, being in her own skin?
She has no clue where she is going, but knows where she has been,
Yet here she lies in darkness, a deep darkness within.
She closes her eyes, as well as her mind,
Drifting off to a place only her soul can find,
A place that's not so dark and perhaps even kind,
A place that she can unfold from her life's grind.
Awakening to a new and fresh day,
Hoping the sun forever shines, this exact way,
A better life, freedom, happiness, what more can she say,
As the darkness again falls, she can only pray.
