Ok.. another random, dark poem by Moi. Each verse has formed it's own meaning in my mind, but I'll let you interpret them in your own way ~ rofl

A stranger enters your room, at night
You scream
And scream
And scream
And scream
But no-one hears
What is it like to be alone?

A stranger has orders to shoot, on sight
He shakes
And shakes
And shakes
And shakes
But no-one sees
What is it like to hold a gun?

A stranger loses their will, to fight
She falls
And falls
And falls
And falls
But no-one cares
What is it like to be alive?

A stranger prays alone, in fright
They cry
And cry
And cry
And cry
But no-one comes
What is it like to lose your faith?

A very touching work. It is very unique and can speak differently to each person who reads it. It leaves you wondering at the end, what could this mean, what is it like? I absolutely loved it and thought you could add more revelations in between the first one and the last. I think the last line is a definite keeper. It really gives a good ending to the poem. Anywho a great work for you again. Another great triumph. I really would love to read more.
