Alone in the night

Submitted by Edward nigma on Sun, 2022-05-15 16:50

Alone in the night
I hide from
the looming light .
That seeps
into the center
of every
single soul that
has ever
grasped upon the
insidious
idea. Which forever
dances towards
the topic
titled death .

I like the poem. It expresses the fear of death which is inexplicable for all men. He comes and goes away with souls of the beloved.

"Words are currency of ideas and have the power to change world. Ride your pen on the rough road."

An excellent job on a difficult subject. I wrote this one a while ago, you may get some enjoyment from it. " Death is a Gentleman". ~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Seeing as he isolated himself when writing .

Hlm life without literature is a life without logic.
