Dark Side of the Sun

by BlueEyedMystery   Apr 22, 2008


Phantom whispers creep along walls,
Thoughts too disturbed to please ears.
Twilight always seems to hide these-
Cryptic, camouflaged fears.

Let it be a haven for things left unsaid.

Silence screams secluded secrets.
Choking on stardust that gleams.
Lips sewed together, never to speak,
But ears still hear those screams.

Let it be a haven for things left unsaid.

Lethal words carried up to the moon,
The harsh sunlight will never be won.
Darkness wraps me up in it's arms.
Hope lies on the dark side of the sun.

    repetition of this line left great impression on me. This sounds elegant and serene and it holds deep emotions and message.

    I love this stanza, it pulled me straight into the poem. It's perfectly worded, but the word " creep" threw me off a bit. I just personally dislike that word. Maybe the word 'crawl' would fit this stanza better. Anyway, this is excellent beginning with remarkable dark atmosphere.

    "Silence Screams"- how powerful. Amazing stanza, haunting, with eerie atmosphere. Great continuation of the poem, very descriptive. The third line is mind-blowing, it holds effective image and overwhelming helplessness which I could really feel while I was reading this.

    This is my favorite stanza... it's simply flawless and every word seem perfectly picked. Also, I love the word 'lethal' lol Overall, I like how you added the title in the poem, it is effective as the ending line. The imagery within this stanza is superbly vivid.

    All in all, greatly done!
