Shadows Call

Small Poem from my story.

-Tal'Gahn-

Born despised

Grown In hate

A vengeful Tale, 

Carved into a heart of slate.

The shadow's call, 

One by one.

Away with darkness he will run.

I love poetry. I get how many people can get tired of cryptic lines of rhyming words, that may or may not have meaning. But if we can create a seamless portrait of time for others to see. that very task can add color to the imagination.
I love how you have paired your words in a simple coupling. It drives the reader and your images are vivid and darkly shadowed. I cannot wait to read the story it belongs to.

Thank you, This is my first poem literally ever, so at this point simple is the best i can do. When you meet the character this poem is a bout it will make more sense :)

Simple is always the best. Few people are impressed with someone trying to prove they are smarter than the reader.
Poetry is a tool. It can create lasting emotions and images. I found your poem very well crafted and excellent.

Why are you sorry for if it’s this good?. Short but very striking.

Do not say sorry for expressing yourself in poetry or in Story. You are sharing with the word how you feel and what is going on within you. Enjoyed your poem. Spoken from the heart. And very true. Humans are vengeful and despised depending on the circumstances and situations they are in. Very relatable and written with insight.
