Let The Darkness In

 

 

Let the darkness take over your heart.

 

Let it in ~

 

Let the darkness seep in to your skin.

 

Let it consume you~

 

Let the darkness devour your soul.

 

Let it take you~

 

Let the demon control the mind.

 

Let him have you~

 

 

Give in to sin.

Feel it~

Give in to hatred.

Consume it~

Give in to aggression.

Fight it~

Give in to complete solitude.

Accept it~

 

Follow the darkened path ,

to a life of loneliness and

desolation.

Give in to all your desires,

Let its evil embrace you.

For once you have traveled

 Down it’s road,

You may never find your way back.

poetry with a moral twist - very creative. I kept waiting for the positives of giving into the darkness - as that seemed to be where the path was leading - then you throw the twist in at the end - bringing a warning to the words - transforming the work altogether. very nice job.

That is a wicked picture. As for the poem, not sure if I like it or not. I think it is one of those pieces that is better if spoken aloud like an incantation or something. Like what you are getting at here, but I feel you could really strain the limits with this one and be even more creative. But that is me. Keep 'em coming.

This is a really powerful and dark piece. I the truth that is embedded in your lines ... the last line is the perfect end.

wow. such truth written end to end. once you have dabbled in the blackness of the night you slowly lose your sight and all the wonders of the world are only seen thru the light of the eyes.

you have lucidly walked us down the path of destruction, for wide is the highway that leads there.

great job.
