Best Warlight Poems
I sit watching myself,
I feel so alone in this
dream-like tale.
I dance but there is no
floor beneath my feet.
A thick mist slowly
appears, surrounding me
and my reflection; I
suddenly feel something
touch my lips, it feels
like warm fingers, they
are as soft as silk.
It whispers softly and
my heart begins to race;
it becomes a shadow, it
is standing in front of me.
A light begins to shine,
it becomes clear; I awake
suddenly to be back in my
room with nothing but the
street light shining
through the window.
I slowly sit up, I see
a dark figure standing at
the foot of my bed, my
heart races once more.
The shadow approaches
my side; it gently sits
beside me.
My eyes are unable to
focus in the dim light;
I feel fear beginning
to grow within me.
Without warning, clouds
unmask the moon flooding
my room with light;
the shadow is revealed; eyes
begin to shimmer like crystals,
my fear has gone; it is my
one true love returning from
a bloodstained war.
Soft padded paws stalk
Golden eyes glow with knowledge
Fade into darkness
Darkness eternal
Does light exist anymore?
Starving corpses wail
Hungry light feeding
Patterns appear in shadows
Soon the world is whole
A great hole appears
Cycles repeating
Fade and back again
