In a Few Hours Time

Deep in the forest

the light gracefully dances

when the wind sings

it gently blows, whispering

its song to the leaves


As the sun sets,

it gifts upon the forest

an alluring darkness

in its wake.

Murder takes form

the strong pursue the weak

the forest isn't singing with peace any longer,

it’s prowling with anger


But in a few hours time

the sun will peer through

with its glorious face

and peace will be

at its leisure

once again


The author's comments:

This poem is for those dark times when you feel lonely or hated. When you feel like things will never get better. The dark times could signify anything in your life: a breakup, a nasty rumor spread about you, or a death of someone close to you. Those times don't last, things will always look up, and those dark times are necassary to make you a stronger person.
