Ghosts of Time

Ghosts of Time

A Poem by SonOfPlunder
"

Wrote this for a friend.

"
Silver shadows line the halls
these ghostly figures loom
listen to their unearthly calls,
the anguish of their doom

Specters made of pale moon light
they linger in the dark
their anger will only fuel their might
and pierce your mortal heart

For time has forsaken them all,
the forgotten and the damned,
and if you hear their ghostly call
you will perish by their hands

The fallen ones they want respite,
their malice knows no bounds,
they will grasp your soul, still you with fright
and scorch these fertile lands 

Time will never threaten them,
these children of the dark
their sacrifice has bound them,
to the darkness in your heart

the darkness contained inside, cannot always be contained. Its best to know this part of ones being than not, it has always been my worst enemy and as its been said "know your enemies, keep them close". great dark write...

This is true, good point well made. Thank you very much!
The poem could be about dead people that search for human beings that have no respect for ghosts because ghosts are evil and that is why they are lost souls because when they were alive they did not have a good thing to offer and now that they are dead they are more miserable because they lost their chance and they want to take others with them because they are jealous of the living.

You wrote this for a friend in a hardcore/metal band ? I'd hear this with big riffs and screamers !!
You can't always understand everything, but damn when you google the lyrics out, you're like man, these guys can f****n' write !
And you are on par with these talented writers. This is riveting and echoing from it's own tomb. Sick !!

You certainly have a way of illuminating the darkness. I love dark tales and poetry that heighten my senses. Darkness can be scary, comforting, beautiful, or romantic. It's all about the spin. Good work Son. Xo Winter
