Listen, listen....
Beware. Once you cross the line will you ever see the other side?
A Light
Shining like a light
Somewhere deep inside
But still they hide it,
Keeping it away

People say they fear the dark
Dancing off into the day
And yet sometimes they stay
Lingering in shadows

What is hidden?
Light or darkness?
Smothering away?

Do you hide the light inside?
Or do you hide night?
Which are you afraid of?
The daylight or the dark?

There is a light
Deep inside
Just waiting to be tapped
But people leave, ignore it be
Cause of a
Fear
Of maybe being seen.

People say they fear the dark
But is that really true?
Or is it the good deeds inside
Covered secretly?



This poem was inspired by a scroll I saw inside of a Chinese restaurant today. xD It was a quote a Nelson something... beautiful, really~

I wish I could make my damn poems rhyme. =_=

I'll have to use a poetry format to challenge myself soon!

    Very cool poem, Sister. Profound...makes you think a bit. Poems don't have to rhyme, as long as they can convey a message smile

    S
    ome of the greatest poems do not rhyme. I think what makes a piece great is how big of an impact you can make or how many emotions you can evoke out of people. I see you've been picking up that poetry again. I took a short break, but I just might be back. :]
