DARKNESS IS IN THE AIR


Darkness Is In The Air / Dark Angel 

There is a darkness in the air , 
I looked and saw it speak , 
I felt it waiting behind me , 
As Dark Angel speaks ; 
Looking for me he cried out , 
So close, yet far away, 
I cannot live another day. 
Knowing that you there,  
Without holding me. 
His voice was like autumn slack 
Sharpening the cold air . 
The strong sound of Dark Angels voice  
Seems faint for a while, 
While I cannot hear it, 
I do not smile. 
I do know he is going to stay for a well , 
Dark Angel shadow shone beneath the black  
As if the sun were there , 
Walks along the promenade, 
By the pale moonlight, 
Us strolling, arm in arm, 
You are there by my side. 
Dark Angel has very strong muscles , 
Black and sleek as lack of light , 
And not so sweet is he , 
Nights pass, 
Yet do not slip away, 
Nights pass and no love found me, 
A smothered laugh came from he  
Watching me as I want to scream , 
The solitary tear I weep, 
Seems to cascade down my cheek, 
Like rain on a stormy night , 
Seems to wash all the memories away. 
Of what is right , 
My heart shatters, 
I kneel to the ground, 
I hear music, 
With darkness all around me , 
A finger lifts my chin, 
Your face I have found again , 
I cannot speak the words I truly want to say , 
Dark Angel will not hear them anyways , 
I try so hard to piece back together what  
Had been left of my heart! 
But Dark Angel has me bewitched, 
With his darkness again . 
Lay me down to sleep why he takes what he needs 
From me ; 
Rest his cooling head up on my breast , 
Kiss it tenderly , 
Stained red is what he gave me all over me , 
I awake with Dark Angel beside me , 
Dark Angel curl his big arms around me, 
Snuggle and caress my breast on his chest , 
I feel suffocated by his darkness in the air .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
