[bodytext] => Slowly dies the night and the dark’s deepest quiet haunts me I am alone and nested, awaiting sleep to drift in dreams of nocturnal memory Then a discomfort provokes a thought my skin, my flesh, my shell; feels empty Panic clamps the heart and an urgent dread makes me weary I can't explain such a strange affliction This fear dilutes a slumber’s passivity New discomforts now enter the mind as lucid black shadows form around me Terror shakes the nerves I lie still with my eyes closed completely but wonder if the shadows have faded and squint my lids, feeding morbid curiosity Those shadows have now formed a face a vision of horror which breaks my very sanity Confusion drinks the fear That of my own, this face hovering above me into my own eyes, my own eyes peer deeply dear Heaven, something like this just cannot be so cold and expressionless with panic's intent my face daringly haunting it's very identity As I run to the mirror for sorting calm the mocking reflection is an unfamiliar sight Hesitant with fear slowly turning to the bed to see my own familiar face twisted in fright I watch life's glow fade slowly from my eyes and slowly dies the night [comments] => 3 [counter] => 519 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Daniel_L_Bamberg [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

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. ©
