An Angel Fell

 

 

 

The dark power I have been following
  has become a reality,
not just shadows wavering in night's wind
  directly from the pits of hell,
 it beckons to me
   no reluctance have I, a good angel fell
 
into it's deadly sin
  this power has consumed out of control
I am now one with the dark night
   as sadly I begin
to feel its deadlock might
  with its sinister shackles 'pon my soul

 

O' how long in darkness must I dwell

  with my mind in sullen shadows cast

to relive a nightmare

  in this god-forsaken hell

an evil neverending task

   filling my soul with black despair

Great imagery! It flows well and it's a place I don't want to be, Fran. Great job!

Photo made the words come alive. i like the description an the dark story. Easy to fall into hell. Very difficult to be release from the prison. A outstanding poem. Thank you.

an excellent poem, disturbingly dark, but in a way that pulls you in. I agree with the others in much about this. I appreciate you entering this into my contest, this is the best dark piece i have ever read, if not the best piece period.

amazing.
