On a cold winding road to nowhere
shadows lurk in taunting flames.
Caressing fears embrace buried deeply
on shallow emotional shores of nightmarish lands.
Trees sway on wicked breezes
blowing tormented whistles in the wind.
Branches crack giving loud statements
in a continued terror filed atmosphere.
Glancing in directions distant screams
laced horror unfolding in silent fields.
Beaconing reflections dark lust to embrace
my running soul in chains of solitude.
Violent faces shine immensely on black surfaces
of natures backdrop, gathering terrible thoughts.
An erosion of panic boils within my bowls
lowering gross abomination towards deviant curses
In distressed valley’s I sink toward living, gaining approval
from a nervous fright building within my existence.
A revelation on this tense filled road to nowhere
leaves me with realities found hatred of evil.
Engrossing my dissatisfaction with humanity...

This is great a brilliant dark write which does the title great credit, you have put a lot of thought into this poem and its brilliant!! I really liked this part of the poem
On a cold winding road to nowhere
shadows lurk in taunting flames.
Caressing fears embrace buried deeply
on shallow emotional shores of nightmarish lands.
It opens the mind of the reader perfectly allowing the images to go into the mind when reading the rest of the poem, Well done and thanks for entering -
We are walking on the dark side again hey hey like that one. As you guide me through the dark with vivid imagery i feel like i am watching the movie attention held to the ending. What a message i like the way it stands alone as a single line brings my to focus in on that one line it is the lingering thought i take to with me to ponder the dissatisfaction with humanity... a lesson perhaps. Very nicely crafted sis with your talented pen Good luck in the contest.
