A Haunting

by Wings Of Flames   Mar 4, 2007


As I split the curtain,
As light spills in,
As my gut renches,
As I'm sickened by sin,

A girl in satin,
A man in black,
One dark alley,
One last track,

The children are singing,
Singing for the end,
Of the torture in a wound,
No angel was to send,

The burden of desire,
A puncture in the heart,
Hell breakin' loose,
And we've fallen apart,

Daddy has brutal hands,
It hurts when I speak,
Mummy beats with voice,
As my tears begin to leak,

The haunting has begun,
It lurks behind the door,
I'll look from under curtain,
But I'm not ready for what's in store.

    This was a well written poem I thought. I didn't much understand it, but I guess that's just because I'm not very bright. I did like the rhymes though, and the flow was well structured and fluent. Anyway, I'd better be going, hope to read more from you in the future
