Ken Allan Dronsfield writes



Shadowed Myth


"Yes, I shall admit, I love you,
 
as dark creatures of the night are loved;
 
concealed between the icy shadows
 
and the haunted heart.

Albeit the Sun now an evanescent memory.
 
Our faith and hopes are born after twilight;
 
whilst creeping among raucous thoughts of despair.
 
Raising hands high to dispel even a star shine.

Walk your hushed path keeping
 
your faithless desires locked within for
 
I shall always be but a whisper away,
 
once the candle flames are extinguished.

I'll then secretly ride the steamy ribbons
 
of impassioned desires within your essence.
 
Pursuing the rapture as I chain the inner demons;
 
Spreading shadowed myths with a fiery flair."

  1. Think of this poem in two parts, one ending with the word "despair" and the other with its rhyme "flair."
