S adistic, toying with emotions

A nger settles in, for the night

D isbelief is not far behind

N eedless, self-deprecation in sight

E asing its way, borne of the dark

S unset, selfishly, brings about tears, I am

S ecretly drowning, in my own plight

Visitor

She waits by the lake

He returns

Unaware

She returns, into the depths

Dragging him along

A Twinge of Fate ~ #poetry #MarchWriting

It is, by chance, I find me here

Destiny lies in my utmost fear

Down below, the waters thrash

From up above, the falls do crash

Spraying droplets, upon my skin

As I ponder, should I jump in?

To drown in the eddies, that violently swirl

As I throw myself in, with an agonizing hurl

Or shall I sit here, letting the pain escalate?

And live with this, everlasting, twinge of fate?

Falling Into Darkness

dream, drowning, Falling Into Darkness, free verse, Night Owl Poetry, nightmare, poems, poetry, sleep, water

I’m falling, falling

Deeper

Into the icy waters

Pulling me down

Into the darkness

I struggle for air

Gasping, Until

At last

I Awaken

Drenched,

In a pool

Of my own

Fears
