Loneliness

Loneliness

A Poem by Tony Hwilka
"

The pit of lonely

"

Do you hear whispers?

            Whispers coming from the dark

Do not stay here

            here death dwells

Souls -- corrupt souls mingling as friends

           lovers or spouses -- disguised

You do not heed whispers chanting?

"souls -- demons -- vampire termites"

"souls -- demons -- vampire termites"

                   dormant!!

 

Till time walks with you to the gallows

and they devour happiness from within

Leaving a shell of emptiness

Mercy Tony! The vision this dark write evokes literally sent chills up my spine. It is indeed the pit of lonely. I've heard it said one should never be afraid of the dark...only what might be in the dark that we can't see...the unknown. And I think we're all a little afraid of the unknown. Great writing my friend.

Powerful write, stark and very dark.
Whispers everywhere, who knows from whence they come,
but they are indeed here, there and everywhere, in disguises
ready to devour all whom they choose.

I enjoyed this write on the 'dark side'! Good job my friend!

Thanks for submitting this to my "loneliness" contest and apologies
for not reviewing sooner!

I sure wouldn't want to be walking out in the dark, right now. A very good write!
