Dark Death Poems - Poems about Dark Death

Cloaked in Shadow
I was drenched in black water, Yet, it looked as though I were dried out. I stood before a lighthouse, Yet, remained unseen. Gazing into the sea’s blackness, The highest tides forever circled me. My eyes could find no anchor, As my dark hands sailed towards the farthest shore. My home, too, was cloaked in shadow; Something unseen, yet present, walked with me there. The...

Premium Member Breathless in Silent Collapse
Breathless, words like cordyceps adhere to my throat, Choking me as the unspoken wrap around, seizing vocal cords. Sticking fingers down, I claw to clear closing airways, Yet the more I struggle, the more entwined they become. Disconsolate spores have taken root within heaving lungs, Spreading to each chamber of the heart, systematically. Transported through streams of hemoglobin, Swiftly infecting Broca's area before...

Premium Member In The Shadow Of Silence
Trudging on the indolent deserted pathway the fragile footprints collapse in the sands of time, the cadence of music dissolves in mirage, life’s unsung tunes fade away in sorrow. In the trembling spine of the parched shadows hungry predators burrow harrowing holes, as the desolateness sucks within the hollow in the insane depth of the sordid souls. They walk addicted on the...

The Snakes in a field of Green
I inhale deeply, take the first step with desire in my soul to grow to be the seed replanted in the soil to receive Vitamin D from Father Sun I wanna be free, but I know I cannot fear living just because I breathe out my nostrils and out my mouth. I still hunger and desire for more for...

Premium Member A wicked Twist Hansel And Gretel
The cupboards were bare. The stepmother said, “There’s not enough. Leave them instead.” Into the woods with crusts of bread, they were left to starve or end up dead. The world was cruel, the fire cold. But children learn to grow up bold. The witch was hunger in disguise. They saw the truth behind her eyes. They lit the fire. They found a way. Two kids came back— but not the same....

Void’s Embrace
Words like thorns, stuck deep, they choke, A silent scream, a shattered spoke. My shadow flees, won’t show its face, Lost within its hollow space. Time’s rusted blade, it carves with grace, Slowly tracing my fragile base. Hands of emptiness, cold and pale, Cradle a doom that’s set to sail. On edges sharp, where whispers race, I hold the night’s forsaken grace....

Premium Member Death Entwined in Living Vines
Something dreadful is reflected in this scene Could be she's seen death in a horrid dream, or perhaps a relapse of an affliction or addiction has left her crestfallen, in an insentient state with the blood of her sin dripping from her eyes. In vines, she's entangled for having sat so long Grieving for whatever tragedy has gone wrong. Entwined in living...

Mary
Everybody called her Mary,her story is legendary in her small home town, after a night of dancing,a drunk driver ran her down. As she lay among the shattered glass, Sweet Mary she breathed her last. What a heavy price to pay, She passed away in her favorite evening gown. People gathered round in tears, Hearts are still haunted after all...

Watching the jagged line
Here I sit gun against my head Praying that I will soon be dead A life with many ups and downs True love I thought would never be found That's exactly what she brought to me The endless love is what it would be Now I can only watch the jagged line As her health will slowly decline We once ran wild and...

The Unfamiliar Line
I look at the same joyful face, At the same old table, same time, same place. The date returns— I feel that fear, She’ll speak again. She’s always near. The clock, it ticks like ghostly chimes, Reminding me of borrowed times. “She reassured me with an unfamiliar line” She’s said it now at least a hundred times. For six long centuries she’s stayed...
