Illusions

Dark Poetry

 Hazy moonlight stretched across the night sky
as I gazed from my window at a starless night
I percieved visions~ myself a stone illusion
and gloom fell heavy 'pon my heart and soul
an illumation in grayish blue tone of rigor light
like none of which I've seen before
yet facination overwhelmed me
as zig-zagged shadows danced in confusion
across my darken bedroom floor
'Oh, what fate would befall me, no clue had I
Nor could I fathom what evil shadows had taken control
On this eve of dark December,strange illusions danced free
 at the stroke of midnight plus one hour more

Such beauty in this one and the flow is wonderful. I enjoyed the style you wrote this in and it kept me intrigued the whole way through. Well done.
