Hello! This is a topic for poetry. You post an original poem here, but there's a twist. The person before you has to decide the topic for your poem. Got it? I'll start with my poem Beware The wind whipped through shadowed trees
"Beware!" they whispered
The opaque moonlight sliced through the dark of still water
"Beware!" they whispered
The silver stag flickered through the trees, flight from gray wolf
"Beware!" they whispered
My bow the starlight glinted off, rapid death through iron pain
"Beware!" they whispered
A pool of blood, eager tongues, and drink
"Beware!" they whispered
The next topic for the next poet will be:
Night

Night
It falls
and I rise
stronger and renewed
hidden in the shadows
as I hide from the light
It falls
and I rise
joyous and alive
clinging to the feeling
when I usually push away
It falls
and I rise
desperate yet calm
heart racing wildly
blood coursing through me
It falls
and I rise
feral and unhindered
fearing no consequence
where consequence should mean most
It falls
and I rise
careless and free
running through this playground
only eight hours deep
It falls
and I rise
satisfied yet somber
savoring the darkness
before the light comes again
It rises
and I fall
frustrated and alone
slipping on the mask
only moonlight can thaw
There's my poem. And...my topic for the next poet is...desire. Have fun!
