THE PERFECT MAZE by mike Steeden

Published by

on

Darkness at dawn as the night overstays
Darkness at midnight in a cradle of graves
Darkness the key that fits any lock
Darkness the wonder that lover’s forgot

Darkness the mother of shadows and rain
Darkness the deliverer of pain without gain
Darkness the witness to all that is wrong
Darkness the destroyer of love and its song

Darkness descends, murders all in its path
Darkness a bloodbath born out of wrath
Darkness you’ve jailed all my yesterdays
leaving my tomorrows in your perfect maze

Darkness, darkness why do this to me?
Darkness, cold darkness just let it be
Darkness I know that you cannot see
that undoing the lock will free the devil in me

    This is a jaunty but dark poem. It’s fun to read out loud!
