Black Faeries and Whistling winds

It is always dark,
In that town of mine.
Not even the moon shines,
Hidden by a wall of clouds.

Every peter pan,
Is clad in black and white,
And they howl at the sky,
To send shivers through your spine.

The Black faeries prance,
Among the bushes barren,

While gravestones mark the place

Where all sanity is buried.

 

There are no houses in this town,

No places made of comfort.

Only nightmares to dream of,

And bloody streets to rest your head.

 

While you sleep the wind whistles,

The boys dance and howl.

The stars don't come out to twinkle,

Only candles slowly flicker out.

 

Come to this town,

One made of nightmares.

But if in the end you dare to visit,

Think of it as your last decision.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author notes

This is actually a mix of my dream/non-dream town, and some nightmares i've had..


What's really weird is that i wrote this as I watched one of my (x) best friends sleep at like 7:30 in the morning.

Weirdddd

    wow. this was good. it was almost like the soul purpose of this poem was to was to warn people to stay out of this town. i loved the flow for some reason,it just seemed to fit and work smoothly for me. the second stanza had to be the best. it had great imagery in it. it was almost as if i was a victim who was living in this town. so thank you for entering. and good luck.
