Silent Night

MKS

Peace upon me on this silent night

Lying under stars of different light,

No troubles of mine to be had

And no reason for I to be sad

 

Across town, Ms. Jones sat alone

Not yet knowing she was on her own,

As she hadn't yet found Mr. Jones

Whose soul had left his earthly bones

 

My neighbor, the young Sarah

Retreated into her minds chimera,

Where her body was still free and pure

After what a trusted man did to her 

 

An old friend, who I never truly knew

Would strike his supposed love on cue,

Creating a household of pain abound

Where children hide from the sound

 

But it all made no difference to me

For I was outside and free,

Lying peacefully on this silent night

Where only my stars shown this bright

    Dark as the night this poem has many messages, secrets held in its lines. We all have our dark secrets that we hide in our closets and only open the door when no one is around. Well written
