In the hours of darkness, I hear the mourners cry, A eulogy for today's victim, Another soul about to die. Dark carnivores rape and pillage, The lonely unsuspecting soul, They feed off the pain and lonliness, Til death finally takes it's toll. I feel the pain of those behind closed doors, Lost love, lonliness, fear and even death! The dark lords shall have a field day this night, For such evils bring forth unrest. Stop their screaming! As an empath I hear and feel their pain! And so slowly it is killing me, And there is nothing ever to gain! Their sobbing, their why's? Can't your hear their soul's shouting? The pain, the pain it never leaves me, This is no blessing only true misery. I'm scared I'm next, Why not me? For one with gifts, Can be turned evilly. Make them stop! I beg of you, Thoughts of love, Are all too few! I fear the coming of the night, The coming of pain, For there is nothing I can do, Don't want to feel ever again!!! *War produces one thing - Cemetaries. And in cemetaries there are no enemies!* |

Isis, when the night is darkest there is a small glimmer of light, it usually comes from people sent for a purpose, so never give up and never give in. You are the reason we live another season. Be well Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

I enjoyed this ... no, I take that back, It made me realize many of my own feelings, my own pain. In recollection, I did not enjoy, but I understood. Those are the right words. Thank you. |

In life we all feel the pain described so well in your words. They swored above me like a knife waiting to stab. But I understood and it brang me some comfort knowing I am not alone. In life things come and go. Live and die. Prosper and fall. But our love and poetry will always carry on. |

Very deep, expressive writing style, rhymed and flowed perfectly! "Dark carnivores rape and pillage, the lonely unsuspecting soul, they feed off the pain and loneliness, til death finally takes it's toll" Take care, Melissa~ [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 04-08-2001).] |

Yes, I agree. You have hit on the mark again. It is the empathy that enables the poet to write out the feelings of others. Without it, you might write, but not so well. Very good. |
