The gun fires in the night
There is no light
I hear screaming all the time
There is so much grime
The children cry out for their mothers
They don't come - their all alone
The darkness clouds over my vision
The demons I hope won't win
I see black, oh so black
The cars whip by
The demons tell lies
How no one sees them - how no one hears
They start turning...the gears
It comes to the daylight
It isn't even bright
Night is taking over
There is no light
There is no might
No sunshine or happiness
It's you I miss
Tears on my face no light in my eyes
Why do you keep on telling me lies
He leaves me be - I'm all alone
I'm actually alone
Silver makes red appear
I can't hear
Come back my love one
He's not yet done
Kiss me goodbye
Do not fly
Hold me tight
Before I see the light
Nothing to see
Nothing to be
Darkness comes on the inside in
Darkness comes on the outside out
She is all alone
No ones there to catch me when I fall
No ones there at all
She is alone
The world's coming to an end
Is it all over
Is it all over
She got the battle scars
Oh why, oh why
Why did it have to be her

Wonderful write
Wow! I think I may have found a kindred poetic spirit! I relate with your poetry a lot and started writing poems when I was about your age! This poem reminded me of those days and reminded me of something I would write! Thank you so much for sharing. Keep writing. Darkness is always present. I have learned that in life. There is always something that haunts you; however, the darkness cannot overcome the light, which is also ever present and burns away the darkest places. Your poetry, my friend, is a part of the light. There's nothing wrong with letting the darkness be your muse so that you can get it out and live in the light! There's much beauty in the world, and turning the darkness into poetry is...in a word...beautiful! Keep up the excellent work! 🙂
Thank you sir. You are very kind to say that, but the darkness has been in my life for so long. Sometimes it's very hard to let even the smallest bit of light in.
Trust me...I know exactly what you are saying. No worries, it will find its way in even as the darkness persists. Keep on conquering it with your writing! Your work is beautiful and true! Love it. 🙂
