Darkness Enraptures Me Poem by Jennifer Batch

Icy breath upon my cheek
Phantom hands reach out to me
Crushing weight upon my chest
My spirit sinks into the depths
Cold darkness enraptures me
Oh, who were you to steal my soul?
Left to be an empty shell
Moving, motions, appearing to live
A hollow core within exists
A silent scream aches to escape
Shattered pieces cutting deep
Oh cold, dark water wash over me
Cleanse my soul deep within
Soothing darkness enraptures me
