State of Despair

It's not a true event, but it's kinda sad and eerie. Just came to mind. Enjoy

"Teary Pillow"

Lying upon sheets of white,
A pillow exists
The room isn’t a fearful sight,
But her dad is missed

She’s deep in sorrow for weeks,
‘Cause of bad demise
A molding of her face in sheets,
A pillow of drippy eyes

When will he soon show his face?
Maybe in heaven’s mirror
She cannot see this blessed place,
For it may disturb her

All she aches is an image of dad,
Eerie sights may stir
But it will surely leave her sad,
And maybe even haunt her

He was the devil engulfed in fire,
Flames of hate rose
Confusion alters her swollen desire,
Questions were a’ pose

Did she want to relive former ages,
Of penalty and regret
No need to dust off those dirty pages,
They’re made to forget!

This is a really vivid story with a lot of deep emotion. Eerie, like you said, but well-written. Thanks for posting.

This was a nice little tale jer. Very sad though......good it isn't true for you.....for one thing you're not a little girl.......second off, this is a true case for a few people out there. So good job in displaying this truthful horror for some.

Story-poetry writing can be very good!  And this one is very well done, like Erica said, very vivid.  I enjoyed it greatly, keep on writing more of this kind of stuff!

Very interesting story... rather disturbing, however.... This is a good way to write if you can do it. Kudos!

The fact that some poems are fiction is a really good thing, nice job here.
