Strains of music drift in
The air shimmers in the light
No one says a word
On a cold and tragic night
Unwanted memories forcefully ignite
People hold hands and bow their heads
Tear stained faces force smiles
As they continue to bury the dead
Clock strikes two a.m.
The winds begin to howl
No one ever guessed what would happen
When it went on its prowl....
Strains of music dance in the night
Lonely drifters go to their homes
Safety within the hallowed light
Time has come for them to feel the pain
Never again will she rise
Never again will he fight
No one knew what would be their prize
Unfortunate souls who got left behind

The deep emotions are coming from your words The loneliness and pain dripping down after every line. Its dark and very strong and it indeed fits in time of year. A great written poem Herman

Interesting. Good choice of background. Makes me think of Halloween, even though it's a few weeks away still. Kind of an eerie sadness to this piece. Good rhyming flow. Keep up the good work.
