Depression

December 19th 2006 12:49
The sun rises, black against the pale sky

Sucking the colour from the night

all fades into darkness.

Souls flee before the spreading dawn

across the plain, running, running

The shadow of day upon their heels

night’s soft light

receding

Dark of day

hunting among them

Icy fingers seek

the weak fall

the strong escape

for now

Poetry, Bullamakanka. You've named it. You've named the thing. Powerful.

Lauren.

Thank you. It was at the end of a rather bad day. But hey, when the mood strikes ya gotta write.

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
