Authors note:  I hope you’ll indulge me as I play a bit with fire (no pun intended).  My life is at a point where stress has taken a hold and will not release.  As such, I am finding more darker writings, as my mind tends to travel a bit far  😉 If you’re so inclined, please read on….Thank you.


With a flick of her finger, a wave of her hands

Sparks of the devil, ignite where she stands

Beauty is captured, in the glow of the fire

Spiraling upward, higher and higher

Conjuring heat, she‘s alive with the flames

Awaiting the fallen, whose souls she reclaims

Fear this demon, the one in which you confide

Her fire burns quickly, once your life is denied

Hypnotic Haze ~ #dark #poetry

Spiraling around her, with undignified flair

Consuming her being, ingesting her air

It spoke not a word, just a hum of a voice

In a moment she knew, she had no other choice

She’ll succumb to the madness, held once at bay

Let the fires keep burning, she’s nothing to say

Spinning and swirling, her mind, in a daze

Trapping her, in its hypnotic haze

Her Destiny ~ #dark #poetry

She cries out, into the silence

What about me?!

And nobody answers

Not even the echo of her voice

For this, this is her destiny

To be ever alone, forsaken

Left only with the sound

Of her very own screams

This is the Place ~ #dark #poetry

Snow surrounds, the mood sedate

No beating heart, awaiting fate

The skies draw in, getting nearer

As the night becomes ever clearer

When the winds take control, arrogate

 

The fog finds its way to her side

Unafraid, she’s no reason to hide

She’ll just sit there, not wander

Or perhaps she’ll just ponder

Why this is the place, where she died

Made Her Bed ~ #dark #poetry

A candle flickers, on the bedroom stand

This is the night, she so carefully planned

Her favorite book, laid by her side

She promised to read it, but knew that she lied

The pill bottle, there, on her white satin sheets

Open and empty, she’s falling asleep

Her thoughts start to wander, with dreams, unfulfilled

The rooms getting colder, her body now chilled

The flame, once so bright, is diminished instead

For she took her own life, when she made her own bed
