Place Of No Return.

by Wings Of Flames   Jul 24, 2006


Blood filtered through the sky,
As it bleeds a cloud's death,
Lightning stricks the meadows,
With the last of mother's breath,

Scarred the ground with emotion,
Freed the spirits from beneath,
Seeping from bodies of break,
And the sneer of bloody teeth,

Stars are burning bodies,
Corpses in the sky,
There is no break of day,
For the sun was meant to die,

In this place there is no light,
Just raw and burnt undead,
There is no use of mankind,
For enough blood has been bled,

Warriors on horseback,
Rotting into the dead,
Last of the momentous living,
The end of the lasting thread,

The land is of fire,
The only eternal burn,
For this is the only place,
The only place of no return.

    Nice ending, and I loved all the imagry in this piece. About the stars, and lightening and everything. I also really liked this line:

    Very dark/haunting poem. Liked it though. The 4th stanza stood out the most to me, not sure why, I just liked how it was worded. Overall though, the rhyming and flow was pretty good. Keep it up! 5/5
