Darkness Deep

[Lomelindo]

The Wind blows through the trees
As sadness whispers through the leaves
A million voices speak to a million ears
As Arda shed her tearless tears
Mothers weep over lost young
An ever present dirge is sung
As we travel through gardens of grief
And flesh crumbles like a dried up leaf
We sail unbound through realms of sleep
Will you become a wolf or a helpless sheep?
What will you make of the Darkness Deep?

;D

I like this one as well. The question of fighting to survive has always struck a chord with me in some of my writing too. Beautifully written.

Hi Artanaro.

I have to say that I truly love this one. In all honesty, I'm usually not very partial to poetry but this sticks with me. Very poignant & very true. It reminds me of someone that I knew quite a long time ago...~sigh~

Sincerely,
Laurasia
