Creeping murk

Creeping murk

A Poem by Jyoti_Ablaze


So many screams muffled into silences

Silences that echoed through the walls

Walls that wept blood, night and day

The blood clotted and turned black

As black as her sooty eyes.

A dark and mysterious poem, an ambiguity that allows the reader to read between the lines.

How such a deeply moving darkness flows through your words, like a misted river. Your thoughts are forged in fire. Amazing rhythm and voice!

Thank you very much for your insightful review, Craig. Glad to hear from you!
This could be about emotional abuse and/or physical abuse or just a ghostly vampire/witch-type person - it could be whatever the reader deems it to be. When a piece is open to interpretation, that is the sign of a good writer. Nice job!

You are very welcome!
For me, it reminded me of abuse and how the abused person's voice is never heard. Perhaps it wasn't meant to be so graphic but it spoke to me that way. I always enjoy reading your writings. Keep up the good work :)

Thank you very much for your insightful review. Means a lot!
Hauntingly graphic. Sets the mood and makes me feel like it's right outside the door. Very good work.
