050. I Watch The Sun Set Behind The Trees Poem by Jaden Knight
050. I Watch The Sun Set Behind The Trees
I watch the sun set behind the trees
giving way to the darkness in the sky
it floods my mind with it's blackness
dragging me inside
I let the darkness take me in
destroying ancient dreams of peace
blinding my love with fury
inside all I own is ash
destroyed by your hate
Why did you want to destroy me
laughing at what I was
you tried to bury me from sight
in my mind I watched you
attempt to fill my mouth with dirt
choking out my existence
You once criticised me for living
because you wanted to take my life
did you have to end yourself that way
because I would not punish you for your crimes
As the darkness escapes my mind
at the start of another day
I understand how you felt
why you had to torture me
I cannot blame you
for what you did
I can only blame myself
I really like the emotion and depth in this piece. I can't point out just one particular thing I like because it's all encompassing in what I see. Wonderful piece. A true 10 all the way.

Narcisitic sociopathic types have had a similar effect on me - love the artistic strong imagery which takes us into your world. Even though I haven't had experience and find the ending a little too condensed to understand what happened exactly you shared the burn of raw emotion well. Ouch: -)
