Emily Hochberg Poet Free verse

So Many Places

There are so many places,
Some where it is dark and black,
Some cold as ice,
Solid and cruel.

But then you see light
In some of those places…
And the ice melts,
The solic, cruel ghost 
Disappears.

Sometimes these places
Have many personalities,
A drastic, scary switch.

Sometimes they hibernate
Deep within for a time,
These dark cold spaces,
Places,
Cold places,
So cold it slices you.

Cruel,
Like the devil himself.

Then there is serenity,
So beautiful, like a rainbow:

Red,
Purple,
Yellow,
Orange,

And then…
Drastic changes,
Changing places.
