SnapA Poem by Danielle Ashersometimes you just wish you could have stopped a reaction after you reactedFinding the way in the dark I hear a sound Could be a growl Maybe an animal Maybe a beast My pulse accelerates My feet continue at their pace Entering deeper into the space I place my hand out before me Guiding my way through the exceptional darkness SNAP Sharp teeth grate at my hand A mouth grapples in my direction I am Still Just a moment SNAP I bite back Giant human jaw Piercing the air Biting at an enemy I can not see Only the black before my eyes Invisible opponent I can not stop Loud screeching sound I can not stop My eyes see only the black before me I can not stop Building I can not stop Anger Tears snap…
on the other side of the light I could have trusted you But all I see is the darkness © 2008 Danielle Asher |
