[hometext] => I fought many demons over this one - a time in my life when I was at an all-time low. Strange how terrible deeds can sometimes be a saving grace. I finally told the police, but he was never found. [bodytext] => ANOTHER TIME The night it was dark, the moon it was nil. The stars they were dim, the wind it was still. The shadows disguise the form that I bear As if I were darkness's underwear. The blackness is thick with a deep sense of dread, While I try to arrange the thoughts in my head. I am hidden from view by the trees where I lay, And the strangers walk past me and shuffle away. With interest I watch as a bush changes shape, To become a young man in a dark coloured cape. A brief flash of steel - I hold back a scream - For its victim is near: I cannot be seen. In silence I watch as the arm swings around. The knife strikes the flesh, the mark has been found. The killer walks on, leaves his litter behind: Blood stains the grass, the scene stains my mind. With ideas of suicide I came here tonight, But now I can't do it, now it's not right. Neither killer nor victim shared the pain that I hide; But I watched as one killed, and I watched as one died.

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. ©
