By blackbeautychi

its dark....very dark

not a sound to be heard...

take a few steps forward.....

darkness consumes any given images

only the sounds of a broken spirit await you

Are you scared?

does your fear make you see the unseen?

does your anxiety make you hear the faded screams?

do your insecurities make you take 10 steps back ?

come closer and look deep into the darkness

do you see what i see?

funny isnt it ?its not as big as you expected or as hairy as you anticipated ...no?dont be so sure..

our worst nightmares hang around the light

take one more step ...

breath...

tears begin to roll down your cheeks and

in a heartbeat.. you turn

away from the mirror afraid of what would happen next


SO MENY CHILLS OH MY GOSH. This poem was chilling, the tension and surprise ending totally won me over. A perfect mix of fear and sadness.

| Call Me Hell |

By FaeEvermore

She's screaming and yelling

With a broken, shattered heart

She's yelling and screaming

While her life falls apart

There are arguments and threats

She'll listen without a word

There are threats and arguments

So many, too many, she has heard

There is silence and verbal violence

Words bruise her skin more than a fist can

There is verbal violence and silence

Once the tongues fell quiet, her tears ran

There were tears and fears

She screams silently; she'll cry

There were fears and tears

She'll wait for the rage to die

When does it end? When does it stop?

She can't just take this anymore

When does this stop? When does this end?

What does she go on living for?
