From Sunrises to Sunsets

by RebelForever   Nov 19, 2009


The sun rises for a time
But the night is always longer
The tundra is teased by the taste of spring
The dead shrubs reviving
The lone wolf cries to the moon
The moon remains silent and unmoving
A beautiful flower falls apart
The dark abyss swallows it whole
The walls close in
The air becomes suffocating
Death flirts with the wolf
But never ends the misery
A month of sun
A year of darkness
When the wolf finally gives up
The moon disappears
Eternal darkness
Eternal pain

    I was really pulled in by your title and the concept of this piece I thought was brilliant. My only suggestion would be to add punctuation for dramatic pauses so it doesn't go on and on, that is up to you though. And secondly, not to use "the" so much at the beginning of each line, that kind of made it drag on. But I very much enjoyed this unique write and keep it up friend!

    God bless you and Merry Christmas!
