I stand
alone
without anyone beside me.
My friends have all vanished
to spare their own lives.
I stand
alone
without anyone beside me.
A tide of darkness sweeps in
My friends have all vanished
to spare their own lives.
I stand
alone
without anyone beside me.
Engulfed by darkness, I still
yet have a shine of hope.
A tide of darkness sweeps in
My friends have all vanished
to spare their own lives.
I stand
alone
without anyone beside me.
I see the darkness within me
battling the light within me.
Engulfed by darkness, I still
yet have a shine of hope.
A tide of darkness sweeps in.
My friends have all vanished
to spare their own lives.
I stand
alone
without anyone beside me.
March on
through the darkness
though all may seem lost.
It is not lost.
It is engulfed in the shadow
so you do not see it.
Reach inside
find your hope
let it shine like a beacon,
and you will see
all the things you thought lost
are there within your heart.
They are there.
Have the will
and the courage
to see what is there
within the tresure chest
inside your heart.
You will find the strength
to stand alone
even when the whole world is watching
your every move.
So stand your ground
for what you think is right
even if you stand alone.

Wow...this is very amazing! You also made it dark..you know me and dark stuff. :) This is a really meaningful and emotional poem. Standing alone is a hard thing, episcopally when your friends seem very far away, but there's a small shared of light to guide us. If we focus on it and stumble through the darkness after it, that one small shared of light can grow till we can be happy again. Wonderful poem, the flow and rhythm is great. Along with the descriptions. Sorry to be a broken recored, but you should add some caps... By any chance is this a song? I submit a lot of songs as poems, you'll notice how there's chorus. Keep writing!
May the divine darkness be with you,

P.S. Read some of SamiJo M's work. She's a great dark writer. She's been moved to the Readers list though... Even though she's one of my favorits on PnP.
This is actually kind of sad, Euna. But it's so good! So that cancels the depressing stuff out. If you really do stand alone, you should be cinfident, and that's what you are. Good job! :)
That is really brave, but you are right no matter if you think it is too late or not, it is never too late, hope doesn't go away it just dies inside but always stays within your grasp and waits for you to give it the breath of life. Good Job
Wow...this one seemed to dance. It reminded me of a dancer on a stage to very slow music, doing a solo, encased in nervous fear but building up their confidence until the crescendo at the end, when it erupts and they move. LOL I think visually, sorry ^_^
Welcome !
