Once upon a once
Where everything happen for a reason
No wonder why love is always slaughtered !
Underneath the pale moon of treason
No wonder why you alone hear them
Creeping past sanity's line
When they breath so slow and heavily
Striking fear within your spine
Moving, lurking within every shadow
As the night shed it's blackened dress
For the night is but a forsaken widow
Witnessing the birth of a new death
Don't wait for a new day, it won't come !
The devious deeds wrought by your hand
Will slowly turn your fingers numb
Your eyes will run dry, your throat will feel sore
Tonight, you will scream till you can scream no more
Night Of The Forsaken

Madz, this was genius! The metaphor of the forsaken widow unforgettable and I've read it three times to brand it in memory. Wondering now when the screaming starts, cheers!

As dark as this is, I adore it! The rhythmic flow to the stanzas was slightly eerie and I really loved the use of exclamation for emphasis. Congrats on the spotlight!

Re: Night Of The Forsaken
Sorry that I've been away for quite a long while
I am very excited and I honestly didn't expect that my poem would reach the spot light zone.
I appreciate all of your comments.
Stay safe :)
