In the darkness Poem by Dean Thorpe
In the darkness by Dean Thorpe
Walking down the darkened hall, I hear a spooky sound
Approach another corner, do I dare go round
The darkness all around me, can barely see a thing
What awaits me round the bend, what will the next turn bring
I rush around the corner, and see a ghostly face
I cannot see the details, my heart begins to race
Feeling round I find a switch, I turn it on to see
On the wall an old mirror, the face in it is me
A poem with double meaning, I think it makes a good slightly spooky poem, but its also about how the way one
of the main things that hold people back in life, is in fact them. Most people live in fear of things, but
most of those fears are not real and are in fact created by their own minds. Most things such as spiders,
snakes, mice, rats, the dark, roller coasters, flying etc. are not actually dangerous at all to us, but that
does not stop a lot of people being scared of them. I am not saying which, but there is one thing on that
list that scares me, but the rest I love!!!
