Imagine

by Something Diabolical   Sep 9, 2011


I am the Pirate, sailing the seas
I am the sharks, waiting the feast
I am the soldier, fighting the war
I am the killing, you've grown to adore

I am the adventurer, stealing the treasure
I am the cannibals, waiting in pleasure
I am the hero, defeating the troll
I am the parasite, drinking your soul

I am the king wearing the crown
I am the uprising, bringing you down
I am the lovers, embracing in rain
I am the reason, you're going insane

I am the dreams, inside of your head
I am the monster, under your bed
I am the evil, making you scream
I am the demon, of everything you dream

I am imagination.

    This is a beautiful, dark-tinted, and childlike, in a sense, piece. I like it. After the first line, I thought it would be more of a childlike poem, but it turned into a grown-up, darker imaginative write.

    ^^ I am a fan of your AA BB poetry. You seem to use it, and it works. It never sounds like it's forced or choking, and it all flows. This is something you really would hear comparisons of in poetry, and I think you are in a class of your own with writing like this. It's a new taste, and it's bitter - but I want more.

    You have an outstanding way with imagery!
