Let The Darkness In

 

 

Let the darkness take over your heart.

 

Let it in ~

 

Let the darkness seep in to your skin.

 

Let it consume you~

 

Let the darkness devour your soul.

 

Let it take you~

 

Let the demon control the mind.

 

Let him have you~

 

 

Give in to sin.

Feel it~

Give in to hatred.

Consume it~

Give in to aggression.

Fight it~

Give in to complete solitude.

Accept it~

 

Follow the darkened path ,

to a life of loneliness and

desolation.

Give in to all your desires,

Let its evil embrace you.

For once you have traveled

 Down it’s road,

You may never find your way back.

poetry with a moral twist - very creative. I kept waiting for the positives of giving into the darkness - as that seemed to be where the path was leading - then you throw the twist in at the end - bringing a warning to the words - transforming the work altogether. very nice job.

I do like the fact that never once did you mention anything about GOODNESS. Very cool.
And the picture is just as devouring to the mind. It all sort of reminds me of a forest on an autumn night.
Well done.

This is wickedly written, simplly scarry to think of falling to the dark side. Well done.

What a write, a very dark raod travelled with this piece, great flow and imagry, very well done.

A compelling piece....very enticing, like the little devil that sits on our shoulders, trying to be heard over the angel on the other shoulder....he plays upon the fact that sometimes it's just easier to give in. Great write!

Great Write

Works well and brings up images of the darkness falling on the reader. The only part that I didn't feel comfortable with was 'Give in to aggression. Fight it' which seems to contradict what you are aiming to say. Maybe you could have looked at 'Fight everything'? or maybe 'Absorb the blows' or something along those lines.
Nicely done.

So tantilizingly wicked write... so true though, if you get a little taste of being bad it's easy to get sucked in. I love this piece.

[Ice Queen of the Vampir..]
