I shall seek some comfort

In the mountains, frosted white

Hide away in hollows

Casting shadows in the light

Blend in with the hilltops

Put my back against the sky

Bow my head in reverie

To angels passing by

Embracing things around me

Amidst the snow and ice

Finding solace in this place

My frozen paradise

Brought about by blackened night

Shadows lurk beyond the light

Causing you to doubt your mind

In your dreams, you seek to find

The open door that’s let them in

The portal where it all begins

Spirits haunting as you sleep

More appear in slumber deep

Wandering about the room

Moaning, in a somber gloom

Yet no one hears them cry but you

You have to wonder what is true

Do these spirits fly among the beings?

Or is this just madness that you’re seeing?

Frosted Shadows

#poetry, cold, dorindaduclos.com, entity, ghosts, light, night, Night Owl Poetry, poems, shadows, spirits, Winter

Frosted windows hide the light

Of shadows moving in the night

You glance to see a face so near

Blink and watch it disappear

This entity is peeking through

Looking, seeking, only you

Making its way o’er the threshold

A spirit lost in winter’s cold

The Abduction

#poetry, demons, dorindaduclos.com, dreams, evil, Night Owl Poetry, night terrors, nightmares, poems, shadows, spirits

Whispers, silence in the night

Shadows, figures in the light

Footsteps, echo off the ground

Bodies, scattering around

Screaming, nothing can be heard

Blindness, filters the absurd

Evil, gathering its flock

Spirits, race against the clock

Sunlight, rising in the east

Demons end their deadly feast

Freeing Me

sunset 12315
When day becomes night, igniting a flare

As the sun sets its light, with nary a care

Where the shadows grow dark, no more fire aglow

Extinguishing the spark, slowly setting, below

When the rhythm of rhymes, are thoughts in my head

And the light from the moon shine, is silently shed

If you listen, you’ll hear such a sweet harmony

Of words finding life, taking flight, freeing me
