People

An older poem that I shared with a friend today in regards to her situation with people.. I figured I would share it with you too. Enjoy.

The People

Darkness, perhaps an Eclipse.
In their hearts.
Ripping at the tips.

Like a candle burnt out.
Their cares are lies.
They're faces all pout.

At another succeeding.
Beyond themselves
The darkness proceeding

These people are fake.
Darkness, an eclipse.
They will take and take.

Til you are left with nothing.
Darkened and dead
In your heart they where something.

They will only hate.
These heartless people.

this poem is wonderful , at the start I didn't think much of it , but I read it two, three times and it sunk in nicely. Although the topic is dark the method of approach is mellow and rhythmic. I like it , it makes me realize who is my friend and who isn't. I look forward to more XD
