I just can't escape this ride
Don't you come any closer
You can't save me

When the darkness loses height
I am blinded by the light
And I won't take it any longer
I have grown much stronger

I am not just what you think
I am not that small and weak
You can't stop me from trying
I am not your child

I will sneak and slip inside
I'll spin this world until you cry-
Please just stop I've had enough!
I will grant your wish now

I will come into my right
No longer shall I hide
I will master my dominion

What a slow decay of time
I just can't escape this ride
Don't you come any closer
You can't save me

When the darkness loses height
I am blinded by the light
And I won't take it any longer
I have grown much stronger

I am not just what you think
I am not that small and weak
You can't stop me from trying
I am not your child

I will sneak and slip inside
I'll spin this world until you cry-
Please just stop I've had enough!
I will grant your wish now

I will come into my right
No longer shall I hide
I will master my dominion
My underworld kingdom

I love it! Loved it right off the bat with:
What a slow decay of time
I just can't escape this ride
awesome! My only suggestion is to shorten "I'll spin this world until you cry" to I'll spin this world 'til you cry. It might help to match it to the punchy line before it.
I am not that small and weak...very very nice! Keep writing!

A strange and thought provoking poem. It's as satan talking to God, right? I wrote one about the wicked ol' boy. Title of: "Evil Personified," if you're interested. God bless.

A great first post ... and welcome to YPDC. I had to come investigate after the comment you left me ... I am truly glad I did ...

"When the darkness loses height
I am blinded by the light"

I like the way you put that. Neat lines ...
Looking forward to more
