Fall of the Night

Fall of the Night

By: Adam M. Snow

Fare thee well, my heart's contempt,

I gave thee my dying breath.

I've soared the world from dark to day,

Longing for that which darkness grieves.

I travel o'er the ageless night,

Bound by that of solstice light.

My voice cannot break through

A silence that now binds me.

I see a vision of only thee,

a vision not I but thee.

Ev'ry night, It be thee not I,

A reflection shown to cast aside.

A mirror vision of I, 

A mirror image of infanticide.

Forget me not I say,

I give thee my final hour,

Fare thee well, my dearest flower.

Awe so sad so beautiful so wonderful. well written and well done as so parts had a rhyming thing going on. Well done with using the olden ages and all to combine your poem incredibly.

Strong, yet I felt it was very unfinished, trusting to the point of unbelieve, although well done.

[Spookers]

A sad ending, but written rather beautifully.
