Amber light

spilleronsheet

Slowly the forest surrounds

the darkness veils sight 

embracing the amber night sky 

hoots and creeps switches by 

a simple soul walks the night 

 

crouching under the night sky 

a shadow engulfs the lonely soul 

the greed it stores 

the seed grows  as it lores

 

looking at  midst sky 

a portal opens tonight 

a lonely soul peeps inside

trying to find the amber light 

will it find 

or will it hide 

will it search 

or will it perish 

 

the darkness 

or the flickering of light 

as the scene passes by 

a spooky hand shakes the simple soul 

admiring the beauty that it stores 

 

creeping behind the fallen feet

the broken hand with sheet 

blood dripping slowly by 

Tainting the river beside

a scoop full of water to quench the thirst 

Alas the quench is gone 

cause the soul is choked 

choked in misdeeds 


the crawling night 

as amber weeps

    A Nice spooky tale well told.

    • spilleronsheet

      Yep
      Thank you so much dear Dusk, trying to venture in different themes…
      Glad you liked the spookiness

    • AuburnScribbler

      A beautiful, gothic Poe like piece here spilleronsheet.

      I love the way you've weaved the stillness of night and the active nature of the dawn together.

      Bravo and I hope all is well!

      • spilleronsheet

        All’s well dear poet
        Was just trying my hands on a different genre
        Wish to take a sip of chilly winds and spooky thoughts
        So why not shade the canvas with this genre

      • Neville



        this is horrorful ........................... 🙂

        • spilleronsheet

          Hahaha 🤣
          I guess I could write it more spookier
          So my efforts of writing spooky tales haven’t gone in waste

        • woundedheart

          Dark and eerie poem leaves the reader wondering is this auto biographical or simply the fear to leap for fear of falling.

          • spilleronsheet

            Ohhhh my !!!you went deeper inside
            I wonder if it’s just a nightmare I once dreamt or simply a try of horror by the blue ink
            But you really added another meaning to this eerie tale
            Now after reading the comment
            I am actually pondering inside, what emotions made me write this ?

          • Rozina

            I’ll be looking over my shoulder tonight. I’d better not look into a mirror too in case I see a shadow behind me. Spooky! Thanks for sharing!

            • spilleronsheet

              Ummm
              Sorry for the scare
              Was just trying something different

            • SureshG

              You have a way of stitching words together, that are spell binding

              • spilleronsheet

                Thank you so much
                The first one you went through was different then my usual themes
                Glad you liked it

              • Vamsi Sudha

                Dear spiller, felt suddenly was watching a horror movie !!
                Yup !! You are really good in scaring us too.:)

                • spilleronsheet

                  Hahaaa
                  Oops sorry
                  Was just trying some different genre
                  It’s better to try some varieties
                  What if everyone is bored of reading the same me
                  Looks like I was able to write in other tastes as well

                  • Vamsi Sudha

                    That is so special about you. :))
