Alone In The Dark Poem by Blakeney-rose Berry

Alone In The Dark

Rating: 5.0


Darkness always follows light
We're no strangers to the night,
We always fear what's not seen
The macabre terrors we dream.

The creaks and scratches in gloom
What horrors lurk in my room,
So, who's making those noises
whispers and terrible voices.

But all is not as it seems
Those are just bad dreams,
For the reals monsters
Are the monsters inside us.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
A poem about hearing noises in the dark at night, and how imagination gets the better of you. It come from my fear of the dark when i was young.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

I thought it was about the evils of humanity, and that we can be consumed by our own darkness, because of our own fear, but it makes sense that it is about imagination.
