Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

by Daylight Lucidity   Jul 17, 2013


My knuckles bleed as my heart tears apart
The monster inside ripping through me
Teeth become pointed, eyes glowing crimson
In my place stands the girl I tried to suppress, her intentions scary.

The night brings out the worst in me,
The jezebel I'm known as by everyone
Appearing in the depths of the darkness
A shadow within a shadow; spreading shallow wounds.

Romping through the woods, claiming the night as my own
Screaming into the velvet black sky,
Climbing the tallest tree and reaching for its serenity
To soothe the pain within; all my attempts in vain.

Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a torch in the sky
Raining down and burning my dreams
Drowning out my deafening screams.

    I don't even know how you come up with this stuff!! Its so great!

    So much I can say about the first stanza! You are not amonster but I know in the poem you are! The vivid details you give always dance in my head and its scary! Which is a great thing! There is a small monster in all of us! And when it wants to break loose it really be frightning. Great set up as always!.

    Second- The night time is so great to use here because a lot of peoples minds play tricks in the dark. It can bring out the worst in all of us no doubt! I love combo words of jezebel and night for many reasons which erm I wont say lol. You are a shadow inside and its wounding your very soul!

    Third- I love the word Romping here to describe the monster inside. And I love how you used the sky to try and help heal you. The stars and night have a way of doing the indeed!

    Ending- I love the misuse of twinkle twinkle little star its by far my favorite stanza. This poem truly blew me away. I love how the drowns you and finally ends your screams. Unbelievable! I see no flaws here at all. 5
