Amidst black roses

In the deepest darkest of night
when all thats good and just take flight
A large solemn shadow shall loom
promising naught but pain and doom

A good and honest man was he
until the truth in mens heart he did see
So abandoned he the dreams of youth
abandoned love and hope and truth

And so alone on a winters night
take pity on this souls plight
He will tell you things cruel and wise
and into his looming darkness you will rise

So we of the dark
with faces by trial drawn stark
Rise up against the light
leave not your soul in this plight

Take those who preach and judge
and cast them into lifes sludge
let them look into our hearts and see real pain
Let them see the power of our dark flame

For those our words are sad and dark
their beauty is comparable to the singing of a lark
So write of broken hearts, and shattered dreams
let the words echo with silent screams

AS at last the light does shine
and washes away that pour souls grime
remember that in his darkness and despair he alone seemed to care.

So with the rising dawn we shrink
For from lifes sweet well we cannot drink
For to the darkness this soul does fly
at this souls flight i beg you, do not cry

hells gate reads Abandon hope all ye that enter here
shall we go?
the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Will you walk with me?

Hey Digital_hell,

Once again I enjoyed reading your poem. You always have such a way with words and an interesting subject. I love the darkness of your poems, always kind of twisted, yet sad and... dark? lol

"let them look into our hearts and see real pain
Let them see the power of our dark flame

For those our words are sad and dark
their beauty is comparable to the singing of a lark
So write of broken hearts, and shattered dreams
let the words echo with silent screams
"

Me fav part^^
Powerful imagery here, yet not the kind of pictues but... the imagery of emotions? I'm not sure if you understand that or what im trying to say, but great write on this one!

I loved reading it and i can't wait to read more

Yes very good and "apocalyptic".
Sometimes we have to devastate some inner parts of ourselves in order to plant new "better" seeds that will grow more positive

I um, WOW, I'm not sure I can find the words to do this justice. I was captivated from begining to end. I love the way you spoke in a kinda oldfashioned dialogue. It made it even more unique and powerful.
                                
"A good and honest man was he

So abandoned he the dreams of youth

You're a very talented writer. I'll be looking for more.
