Hunter of Souls

Topic: DarkPoetry



I lie under a canopy of green
Sweet smells of wild tulips waft the air
I lay here in a bed of violets and fallen leaves
I lazily shut my eyes, of the watcher, I am unaware

Suddenly I hear a twig snap
I bolt upright and fill with fear
Then I realize this was a trap
I then see the black eyes, the yellow pupils leer
I start to scream, but its too late, its already here

I dash through what was once my haven
I cry as I blunder down the paths Id leisurely strolled
My ears fill with the screech of a maddened raven
The silence in my ears roar, and my hands are frozen cold

Tears blind my vision
I run wild and nearly fall
I come to the swollen creeks edge; I must make a decision
Should I jump in? Or attempt to cross the log?

No time! No time!
I jump in, the icy water stinging my eyes
I fumble and grip onto a slippery vine
I cant believe its real, after all the lies!
And since it is, how will I escape it alive?

It sees me, but wont go in
I cling to the branch and realize my fate
I know if I get out of the water it will win
My heart beats slower, and my breath begins to abate

I roll my eyes up to the sky
How I wish I could fly
I tell the clouds Id once played under goodbye
I let go of the poisonous vine with a sigh
It watches with disappointment as I die
My soul never to be his, but always mine
