Darkness Comes
    5-7-5

The end draws so nigh
This bright winters day it's clear-
darkness must come soon

I agree with SpitFire....haunting.  Curious...the 5-7-5 in the title?  Care to explain?  Hardrock

Thank you both for the kind words.

Hardrock-- the 5-7-5 is to indicate that it is written in the Haiku form of Poetry...

Jamie . . . Great haiku my friend.  Simple yet it speaks volumes.  Great writing.

Jamie, Wow you are on a roll sweet one  
Loved it!  

Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive,
my body goes on, my spirit has died
and I though alive, feel dead inside.
