Monsters In The Dark - A Poem By Adam Akers

"Monsters in the Dark"  Shadows creep upon the wall Where fears and doubts begin to call The darkness whispers, it taunts and plays As monsters hide in secret ways In dreams, they lurk with eyes aglow Their presence felt, though unseen, they grow The heart beats fast, the soul feels pain As terror reigns, and hope's in vain I tell myself they are all gone But in shadows and darkness, they continue to spawn The boy inside me that fears and dreads Still trembles with each creaking thread But when the light begins to shine The monsters falter, lose their design Their power wanes as dawn breaks near And in the light, they disappear Yet in the silence of a quiet night A newer fear arises, a different plight The shadows fade, the monsters sleep But I'm left with the fear of emptiness deep The fear of years that slowly pass Of reaching out for hands that won't last And in the darkness, every face I see Hides its own shadows, its own secrecy No warmth of love, no gentle h...

HIS ONE SAVING GRACE

He knew she was someone he would never replace. An Epic lo...

I Shall Meet You Here - A Poem By: JT Cartwright

In our dreams we shall meet We shall meet in the safest of places Where we can be together and heal alone For if we were together in the physical, the broken pieces may cut But here my love I can hold you close, and cause no damage I look forward to these moments with you In pure serenity In the silence Just hearts beating Bravely loving one another Until the day our dreams become reality I shall meet you here.
