On the Edge of Darkness #poetry #photography

painted trickle

I stand on the edge

where  darkness

with a forked tongue

licks at open wounds

into my weakness plunge

I stand on the edge

where  darkness

grasps at my open cloak

causing me to fail

bruising my last hope

I stand on the edge

where  darkness

stealth it lies in wait

comes with razored teeth

knowing I’m the bait

I stand on the edge

where darkness

seeks for my demise

swarming to my end

disgusting are it’s lies

  1. Wow! I am afraid to turn off the lights now. Great chilling dark poetry!

  2. One should always carry a little light when traversing this world…love the way the emotions are expressed in the poem.

  3. i’ve stood at this very edge myself… superb writing!
