The Wood

Tristan Robert Lange

The edge of the wood
Is where we dwell.
Beyond the reaches
Of a thicketed hell.
 
The looming tall trees
Tower over us all
Like phantom figures
Foretelling our fall.
 
Veiled in a thick mist,
Shrouded mystery,
The forest is full
Of haunted history.
 
Looming over us
As shadows from hell,
The forest becomes
Our abode to dwell.

    This is a beautiful write, I am within the trees.

    Despite their calmness and their beauty i often find forests can be a bit sinistet. This poem, for me, captures both these aspects. Well done
