SECRETS IN THE DARK

SECRETS IN THE DARK

A Poem by Miss Sharon

SECRETS IN THE DARK
 
Distant thunder
made off with her sleep...
whose time seldom came
or stayed the night.

Dead men dream no dreams
upon their pillows
tightly stuffed....
hiding secrets in the dark.

There is an ominous tone to this one. An eerie scary movie sort of feeling. Sleep....how precious it is and how rare for those of us who worry and stress. Secrets can haunt a person and rob a person of sleep....there is no doubt. Wonderful work here, Sharon. Lydi**

Dead men don't wear plaid? Being of Irish heritage I might have to differ with you. LOL
Those distant thunders and their echoes do make off with our peace and serenity. Sleep deprivation becomes the norm where we stay up thinking and thinking and even worrying. An excellent haunting write...:)........

True words written.
"Dead men dream no dreams
upon their pillows

hiding secrets in the dark."

Thank you ever so much Helena for your lovely remarks on this write! ~Sharon
I like the way of writing in short stanzas. this brings more power into the work ( as far as I feel)..
The poem makes me think of a lot of hidden secrets of the dark.. starts a stream of conciseness. Great write :)
