Literature Text

A cautious man will never hold
The Devil to his word-
The blackest smoke will never rise
Burning Ice will not be heard.

This morning's dawn will break the sin
Of twilights timeless night.
This mourning's time calms the heart,
Of this hero's fleeing fight.

Courage runs at evil's face -
Safety in numbers is true.
The edge of my thoughts catch me back again.
So alone - this is nothing new.

My whispers echo thunder
Where the stars dare not to shine
I'm safer on the teary trails
That ocean's tide is mine.

So I close my eyes and wait for the beginning.
That is nowhere near the start.
Lead me clearly and lead me right-
The flames fade in the dark.
I wrote this late in the morning - Just ideas that came to me - I tried to make them flow -

There is a deeper meaning to the poem, many of the lines can be taken more than one way - let alone the stanzas.

But I'd rather have each person take what he/she will, and not give it away.

Thank you for reading.

As you know, I usually don't like poems.

However, I LOVED this one. I love the visuals it creats. I love the words you used. It's "freaking amazing"! ^_^

Honestly - and you'll probably laugh at this - but it reminds me of a Vampire. Not all of it. But some parts.
Yeah, I know, I'm obsessed.

But again, it was amazing! I :+favlove: :+favlove: :+favlove: it!

Honestly, I could go on and on about it - but I'll do that later.
You're amazing, love. :love:
