[bodytext] => A breath of night feels cold on my shoulder Within the darkness stirs something much older Than the dirt slowly shifting beneath my bare feet Or the ancient artifacts hidden under seas Through the air flows a power no human has felt It tickles my spine, like a lover makes me melt. Before Earth there was a land unlike the paradise we see It’s fable is whispered covertly among the trees This land had no mountains, deserts, jungles or open seas It was a land of dust and ruin, yet veiled in sadistic beauty Still, at night, the spirits from this forgotten realm still roam Angry at the creatures that have taken over their home. So watch out for the night, it has eyes in the very air They will seduce you, take you only God knows where This is what they told me, and I wouldn’t accept their word For the idea of dark, sadistic spirits seemed totally absurd Now here I am standing between all space and time Staring into the darkness, into beautiful, enchanting eyes Everything in me is pulling, wanting me to run to their embrace Until I feel, not liquid but not air, enticingly stroke my face Suddenly the arms of an evil darkness wrap soothing around my waist And I exhale, closing my eyes, wondering vaguely what is this place? The demons move about me in circles, they chant my demise While soothingly they murmur compelling lullabies. And now I’ll sink deeper, into their irresistible spell Until, too late I’ll find, I’m not in heaven, but in hell.

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. ©
