In Darkness Poems - Poems about In Darkness

Dreams Dissolve in darkness
In the dead of night, her prince reveals his true form, A wolf in sheep's clothing, his heart as cold as ice, She's trapped in a nightmare, no fairy godmother in sight, Her glass slippers shattered, her dreams left to freeze Her heart, once on her sleeve, now lies frozen and alone, Shattered like the glass that once adorned her...

World In Darkness
I don't see anything in darkness But when I close my eyes I see everything. I've known that even in darkness The seed sprout Life is a miracle. I can appreciate light When I'm in darkness It's the meaning of success. I can't see what's beyond the sky The ocean and the human heart But I have peace of mind. ...

Premium Member Through the window of time, waves of souls flow, lost in darkness
Through the window of time, waves of souls flow, lost in darkness, Through the window of dreams, I feel caught in webs of memories and eternal longings. Through the window of destiny, the mirror of the world shatters into shards of falling stars, Through the window of silence, I wait for time to release me from its unseen...

Light In Darkness
We court darkness to see the light & every room has a bit of both We're the sum of wombs in many ways giving birth to things in route to growth Every little step we take is toward a cliff & one day we'll all exceed the edge The roads we take are hit or miss & every single path has a bit of dread Tread...

Dissolve in Darkness
darkness that once I befriended is pulling its strings and laid down it’s plans the tales I recited following the shadows of his and her, my and their life are being used as a canon to shatter decomposed walls who plead me to say “yes” with every single breeze, with every single breathe, i refuse to kneel before defeat in my cold barren land, every...

Worship in Darkness
Can your prayers not take flight, Try the darkness in absence of light, Pitch so dark you can only see thought, Now begins what needs to be taught, Resonance of the pitch you need to replicate, Variables of emotion will flow from love to hate, Focus on the presence filling your lung, A slight presence...

In Darkness and Death
In the silent, shadowed halls of night, Where whispers dance with ghostly light, Lies the realm where death does tread, A sovereign land, where all fear to head. Cloaked in darkness, a figure so still, Its presence alone, enough to chill. With bony fingers, cold and sere, It beckons souls, both far and near. In its gaze, eternity lies, A void as deep as...

The scattered dreams without a goal The shattered seams within my soul I ever vow to spark in hell Forever now in darkness dwell What mattered most I turned away A clattered ghost I spurned what may Ever versed to endear the night Forever cursed to fear the light...

Premium Member Memory, the Annihilation in Darkness Haunts
Memory, the annihilation loop in darkness haunts… this night…a hammer old, gun barrel cold weight of a baby’s head, less a hair gripping death, tempered fire punching steam subtle, dangerous, good in a raucous romp popping rivets like teeth, swinging drunk love snatching glimpses, mid swing of faces drawn flush against the swaying light silence beating in slow agony across...

Premium Member Screaming in Darkness
There is a darkness that tears at the mind like vulture's beaks, ripping flesh from flesh as blood drips down my hands from fingernails clutched to my face in a silent scream of terror I suffer in this dark realm as my mind sees things, a dark demented shadow passing in my mind's eye hunting my soul trying to consume what it can wanting to leave an empty...

Solace in Darkness
My heart was once blackened with each droplet of lies left by him, Now it hangs iridescently by a tree, Wrung out are the bloodshot tinted tears, Leaving me to rest in the velvet dark, As his crimson stained memory drips into oblivion....

Premium Member She Walks In Darkness
Who was she ... The one who walks drifting out and in? A haunting beauty, pale, porcelain - like. As solemn as the ever silent night. Partaking of this twilight, cloudless. It's chilling climes, thrilling arms and eyes, glowing starry at blackened skies. From mansion walls and behind doors and all. Over the floor that's creaking it's best. Skating the ends of corridors gone dark. To the window and in ghostly bright? Inspired...
