The Night

by Mousie   Nov 4, 2006


Rage has burned inside her
Anger turned to fear,
The fire strikes her unseen eyes
Lighting up her tears.

Water droplets drape her
In a blanket of dismay,
Pain, it pierces through her
Pride begins to fray.

Guilty as a sinner
Reason turns to shame,
She cannot face this dismal night
Dependant she became.

Enclosing her in darkness
This cloud of hatred be,
Curtained torture is this night
For none the world to see.

    The way you used language in this poem makes it have something particularly strong. I've given you a 5/5 for the language
    The concept behind the poem is not clear though; why is the protagonist angry?

    Fabulous poem. My favorite part was:

    "Enclosing her in darkness
    This cloud of hatred be,
    Curtained torture is this night
    For none the world to see."

    Best wishes, 5/5. Unattractive1

    Short and simple, yet gets the message across.
    You put a lot of emotions into this one and I can tell.
    Wonderful flow and excellent vocabulary. Keep it up! 5/5
