Array ( [sid] => 163634 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Return to Dust [time] => 2010-12-10 03:51:41 [hometext] => You cannot run from death. Death is the dust in the wind. The whisper in the night. There is nowhere you can hide. Death is you, death is me. Death is all encompasing. [bodytext] => The sand it sifts, the sand it churns,
And to the sand I will return,
Today I’ll blow into the wind,
And thus my destiny begins,

It is my fate to come unwound,
Becoming deadly, but profound,
Turning whispers into screams,
I will haunt you in your dreams,

A black mask across my face,
Dark red eyes see your disgrace,
And when the time comes due to pay,
Here in shadow I shall lay,

Tempting you with bitter hope,
I will watch you as you choke,
In the darkness I will hear,
All your pleadings and your fear,

But you cannot run from me,
Death is here to set you free. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 147 [topic] => 13 [informant] => deusdeira [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 12 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

And to the sand I will return,
Today I’ll blow into the wind,
And thus my destiny begins,

It is my fate to come unwound,
Becoming deadly, but profound,
Turning whispers into screams,
I will haunt you in your dreams,

A black mask across my face,
Dark red eyes see your disgrace,
And when the time comes due to pay,
Here in shadow I shall lay,

Tempting you with bitter hope,
I will watch you as you choke,
In the darkness I will hear,
All your pleadings and your fear,

But you cannot run from me,
Death is here to set you free.

OMG! Nice write, really enjoyed this.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
