Description:


This poem was written last night about my fear of the dark.


When the Darkness Falls



When darkness falls we lose our light.
It's a scary thing not having sight.
Not seeing the things we do all day.
When darkness falls, they fade away.
All that's left is the dreary dread,
of not knowing what lies ahead.
What lies ahead that we cannot see.
There's something there... willing to pay the fee?
Warn your friends, they might think twice,
or are they so bold to pay the price?
The price is high and the stakes are great.
Don't be a fool and take the bait.
When darkness falls... run, run I say!
Untill you see the light of day.
For if you stop one minute too soon
The darkness is forever your doom
Forever you'll wander confused and blind
The darkness will forever bind
Your life is gone.. I told you to run,
but you stopped before you reached that sun.

  Your life is gone.. I told you to run,

  "Your life is gone.. I told you to run,
but you stoped before you reached that sun."
I love this part. Maybe you could change it a bit though, I don't know but I think it flows more easily if you write it this way:
Your life is gone; I told you, "run"
but you stopped before you reached the sun

other than that, I thought it was lovely, rhytmic, and classical. You have some spelling errors though, on the line before the last, and the first one. now other than that, it was wonderful. i too am afraid of the dark, except not really the darkness but the sounds i hear which make me hallucinate something abnormal. Take care. xxx
