Poem Commentary

Just a strange scene I saw play out in my head many, many years ago. Not even based on an actual experience or real emotion for that matter, just an exercise in creativity.

Never Again

Never Again

 

Silence through the night, afraid of what awaits

 

Shivers up his spine with every move he makes

 

Terror deep within, drowning his very soul

 

This is how he felt, before his life I stole

 

He covered up his head as if to hide beneath the sheets

 

The only sounds heard then were his sad and painful weeps

 

I said unto myself, “Cry not cowardly one,

 

For you won’t have to face the rising of the sun.”

 

Tears rolled down his face, he shook so violently,

 

He let out a terrified scream when he saw the shadow of me

 

A moon beam then descends and shines from the gun in hand

 

In the darkest night of nights, and that’s where I did stand.

 

No more hesitation, I know this is the only way

 

For I can’t just and by silently and ignore it one more day

 

Without a word my finger moved and wit that fatal blow

 

I knew Never Again, to her he would go!

the darkness in this write covers the soul..blinds the Sprite,while hoplessness surrounds the very air,,wizthom

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
