Comments : Dark Shadows

  • 6 years ago

    by Ya----Na

    I found quite things close to my heart but the other way around. Rhyming is too perfect and one can't expect an average poem from a wise person like you, that's why good content too. And life?
    It's a mystery.

      Hi YaNa thank you for taking time to read and comment on my poem. Not my usual style I was trying for a sonnet not sure if it met the mark. I think that sometimes life and its challenges can get people down from time to time and that when hope is lost things can get quite dark but a good strong mantra can sometimes resurrect that small glimmer of hope again. Take care Milly x

      I think that the best mantra is to keep on going and going and don't stop, witness the beautiful moments and if possible try to capture them in your heart, till the last destination.

      Walter I am so glad that you liked it. I know its not to every ones taste but its sometimes easier to write something that is dark than light. Take care best wishes Milly x

    Everything will be okay in the end. I know life is difficult but you just have to have hope. Even small changes are wins.

      Thanks Jamie. I've come to realise that no matter how bleak things can feel at times. Life is never completely dark or light. There is always a shining light of hope if we look hard enough and it is hope that carries us all through. Take care Milly x
