The Darkness

by Brittany C   Nov 23, 2006


How did I come to be here,
In this dark swirling abyss,
That surrounds me,
And pulls at my soul,
Dragging me down,
In to the deepest of shadows,
Slowly smothering me,

The pressure is just too great,
And the darkness is slowly corrupting my mind,
And slowly it rots my very heart and soul,
To the point of no return,
Cursed for eternity,
To remain in this darkness,
For the darkness is all I know.

    Ohhh this is beautiful!
    The imagery used created very vivid pictures, the word choice was a joy to read, as was the whole poem, my favourite part is the ending, it's so intense and hardhitting.

    Very good work! I gave it a 5(and, yes, I voted!)
    Beautiful descriptions and so abstractly surreal that it makes perfect sense to me!

    Haha... I loved this one, though. My favorite, I think. Nicely done!
