The stars glare unblinking
Cold as the ice
The moon is of no help
The jester of blight
They fall through the cell
And bring with them fatigue
They entice their victims
And make them believe

With night come the horrors
And the dreams sank in,
Sweet
Prolonged are life’s tortures
As the time draws on the
Weak

Judged by the world, who knows of him—none
Expelled by his peers, for he is but—one—
Unknowing of crime, and oblivious to his infraction
The purest of souls takes the greatest of actions

With day ensues anguish
Inseparable, uncouth
The scorn of the brazen eyes
Those fearers of truth

Resigned to his sentence, the convict walks on
His trial unjust, his torture—too long
Accused of a crime
He’s never commit
His fate was decided
By a battle of wits.

Unending the hardships
Interminable pain
How is one to survive
And keep his soul,
Unchained?

I'm in a good mood because of a poem that I just wrote, and I don't believe anything can destroy that good mood, well I sure as hell hope not anyhow. But that's not the point. This is an excellent poem and I loved reading it. Dark poetry has always been a favourite of mine and you just showed me why.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
