Silhouettes In The Dark Poem by Ananya N

Silhouettes In The Dark

Rating: 5.0


An eclipsed moon
A silhouetted path
Dismembered contours of the dark
Cast me into inescapable gloom

My path meanders
Through a shimmering abode
Of undeserved riches
Avarice swells from an empty room

Drifting dusk
Blemishes the Raven sky
A shadow of guilt beclouds my being
Spells my nearing doom

I flee from the glittering mirage
Into the moonlight
Sheened in its brilliance
I paint stars on the grass

Silhouettes In The Dark
